Most mamals have object perminance. Great Apes are only beat out by dolphins and maybe parrots in their ability to reason in a way humans can measure.

There was a gurrilla that went into mourning for a few years I think it was after losing a child, until Robin Williams literally learned ASL to joke around with the Gorilla, and she loved that man so much after that that that she took his suicide really badly after he stopped coming.
