Some do, many don’t. Humans are actually really graceful compared to most animals and intuitively do very complex things in space. Tossing a paper ball into a garbage can from ten feet away is an almost uniquely human ability. You ever see a dog try to fit a long stick through a narrow door? Their ability to judge relative sizes and distance is terrible, comparatively.
I have seen too many videos of small monkeys and big apes throwing their dong to agree with your paper ball theory. Also frogs don’t throw balls but are great at catching insects, a lot of other animals have great spatial awareness when it comes to hunting prey. But tbh, I doubt wether they could grasp the concept of a box going up and down like humans do.
Have seen too many videos of dogs trying to take long sticks through narrow doors to disagree with you there though. Personally I think dogs are just not that smart after all that (in)breeding we did. I’m not calling dogs stupid, don’t want the world to dislike me.
Frogs and archerfish and chameleons and such have evolved to do that one thing, it’s more like a preprogrammed algorithm than spacial awareness. And they miss a fair amount if you sit and watch them, that just doesn’t make the Animal Planet highlight reel.
Speaking of highlight reels, that kind of confirmation bias also applies to poop-slinging monkeys. They literally don’t have the musculature for fine control, they just throw a lot of shit.
