Animals can hate.. and do take out vengeance. They can get jealous and they can dislike certain people or animals (especially those who harm them or pose a threat.) They also have a great capacity to love.
My cousin has a cat, and her father and cat don't get along well at all. The father teases the cat and isn't very nice with it... and the cat sometimes gets his revenge. He will poop right on top of her father's bed.... nobody elses, just her dad's.
My cat once peed right under my father's dining room chair. (They also didn't get along.)
Seems the men in the family don't get along well with the cats.

depends on the animal. If we are talking about a do like a family pet and he already knows he belongs, if he were to see one in that particular familt being abused verbally or aggressivly by one that is not belonged in the house he will attack on revenge. A monkey-you can have a pet as a monkey and get pampered, you have a child and not so much attention is seeked to the monkey as it was before you had a baby he will get jeolouse and will try/or become succesfull in hurting the baby. Monkeys are very jealouse

I don't know if animals understand the concept of "justice" but they can certainly hate and seek revenge....

I think that animals do seek revenge, but there and then, not at a later date like humans. I don't think they hate, but they do dislike people or other animals.

justice and hate are gruoped to human beings. what separates us from animals is that we are rational beings. we can think about thinking and we are also self aware of our position in life.
so in conclusion no animals cannot seek justice or hate, they are just concerened about shaging,eating and sleeping.

No they have there own agenda. You cannot put human emotions and sensibilities onto another species. They are what they are, we are what we are. We may call things justice or hate, god alone knows what goes through their minds

I believe that certain animals do hold a grudge and seek to rectify wrongs done to them - especially primates.

They definitely seek justice. My ex hated the patriarch of my feline clan........when ever I did anything to piss off the cat he would pee on my ex's things.......like his trumpet case....God I loved that cat. Pookie, may you rest in peace and haunt that jerk!
