Depends on your specific definition. They have shown that at least some animals are aware of the past and that others can plan, consciously, for the future.

Memory of changes is not Time. I am not saying that memory of past changes, nor plans for possible future changes don't exist. I am saying that the concept of "Time" itself is just a way of referring to changes that have taken place, are taking place, or might possibly take place in the future.
We can only live in the current moment that changes are taking place. We cannot travel to the past, which is only a memory, and we can't travel to the future, because the changes have not occurred.
In other words, Time Travel is impossible, regardless of what the Science Fiction Writers, Cosmologists, or Physicists think.
Carpe Diem!

With your more specific definition then no I do not agree.
You definition, far as I can see, is just one of philosophy. It fails in the following way...

That doesn't mean anything. Any "current moment" is gone instantly. There is no living in it because living requires reflection and planning. Especially for humans and in fact most animals.
A mouse runs from a snake.
A human saves in a 401k.
Those are both reactions to the past and acting on the future.
An amoeba perhaps lives as you claims. It moves from threats and reacts to food. There is no past and no future.

Good observation. Yet another useless piece of information is that, the reason turds are tapered is so that your cheeks don't slap shut. Life is full of interesting details...

[^], but, it wasn't a dream !
i didn't notice at first, but, there were mermen, also.
what would a merprogrammer be ? someone who can switch-hit between high-level languages, and assembly language ? someone on this forum, often, comes to mind ...

I thought mermaids all looked like Ariel. Most of those mermaids look like Ursula.

Not that obscure, right?
They sell it at super markets, even the small one in the small village where I live.
But it could be different in your country, of course.
