I doubt it. The point is, real disgust may well be uniquely human and has, as far as I know, not been observed in animals.

A dislike response, for example to bitter taste, is not the same as a full blown disgust response, which is not seen in animals - at least in the wild.pic.twitter.com/33rLtCltp9

From my feature on disgust for the National Nutritional Society: "Although most animals do show dislikes for certain forms of food, an authentic disgust reaction has not even been seen in monkeys and apes."

That actually *isn't* disgust, but a reaction to what was smelt causing pain to them. As soon as it was removed from the dog's immediate olfactory area, it was done with it, and had no animus to the stinky thing, whatever it is.

A dislike is not disgust, a complex instinctual response containing several arms, among others a gag reflex. According to Rozin, the most respected disgust researcher, full disgust is not seen in animals and children under a certain age.pic.twitter.com/RURjUHU463
