What's an animal to do?

It seems pretty clear to me that one difference between humans and animals is that humans are aware that they are aware and consequently we can act instead of react.
The thought came to me today related to rebirth and the different worlds of rebirth of which animal is listed, that what's an animal to do.

How could an animal grow or become more aware, less ignorant?
It really can't, what am I missing?
