Solution
View: Unlike humans, animals are placid and self contained. They do not try to set targets or achieve goals as humans do. Animals do not complain about their condition. They are quite satisfied with their living conditions, whatever they are. Moreover, they do not worship things, other animals, or people as God. Neither are they too bothered about possessions or earthly matters
Counterview: Since animals are self-contained and self-satisfied, they do not feel the need to improve their living conditions. Humans are restless, they complain about their lives. The result is that they continuously try to improve their living conditions. By setting targets humans are able to achieve all. Animals have no idea about God. Humans acknowledge a divine Creator. Animals do not worry about possessions or earthly matters. As a result, they do not possess the will to care about the future of this planet, as humans do.
