Though learning might seem like a complex topic, understanding the processes that take place when an animal learns helps us to develop tools to modify behavior. Observing changes in an animal’s behavior in response to changes in its environment allows us the opportunity to gain insight into the learning history and make changes to the animal’s behavior. Animals are responding to their environment constantly, and often, the environment responds back in one form or another. This interaction between environment and behavior can be understood through the processes of associative and non‐associative learning.
