I'll wager that if the great apes were made familiar
with a camera & its results, they could understand.

I don't know if they understand when we take a photo of them
I do know that they are generally much more photogenic than humans
(no lipstick, hair combing, nice dress needed ... they just look fine the way they are)

I think they do know. Whether they interpret and process that data the same as us, that it's a camera that takes pictures, an inanimate object and piece of technology in the hands of a human... not sure.

Possibly. They understand, at the very least, that a fuss is being made over them. Dogs are pretty smart. Cats are too, but they don't want their cover blown. :D

We had 2 cats, (one was killed recently).
We live in a picturesque village that receives thousands of camera happy tourists every year. Our surviving cat seems to pose whenever she sees a camera pointed in her direction. But if we take her photo she will always look away from the camera. Contrary cats eh?

The cat who died always ran and hid from a camera.

So i think both cats recognised something was going on, as to understanding, i really dont know
