Do animals understand that written language has meaning?

Reddit Animals

I've wondered before if animals can understand human speech at least to the point of knowing that it is a meaningful form of communication and there are plenty of answers to that online. But now i'm wondering if animals understand that human writing contains meaning/is a form of communication? Even if they don't know what it means of course, are they still able to recognize consistent symbols and know that it means something to US. maybe if they've seen humans create them?

Anyone else have a black and red squirrel in their backyard?

Reddit Animals

I love my backyard critters. I've known all of them for years. There's the black and gray/brown squirrels. Then this year, something new appeared: a squirrel that's pitch black on the lower half of their body and a VIBRANT orange-red on top. It really, really sticks out. And I can't find a picture on Google of a squirrel like this. If it's a winter pelt, I've never noticed one like it in all the years living here.
