Yes, animals can experience grief. Many studies have shown that animals, especially mammals like elephants, primates, and dolphins, exhibit behaviors that indicate they are grieving the loss of a companion or offspring. This can include changes in behavior, loss of appetite, vocalizations, and seeking comfort from other group members.
