Being an animal can be a rotten deal. Imagine you're a roly-poly, and you were born and lived your entire life within the greenery at Disney World. If you're a human, being born in Disney World might get you free tickets for life, but if you're a mere bug, it will guarantee a short lifespan that will probably end at the hands of a human child. You might argue that the location of any of our births is more indicative of our fate than anything, but that's especially true for animals. At least we humans have some means of long-distance travel. Unless you're a bat, cool bird, or awesome fish, you're pretty stuck in the continent you were born in.
But being an animal isn't so bad! You don't have to go to school or work, and you can lounge around most of the day, scrolling through animal memes. Maybe the scrolling part would be tricky, but animals are more adaptable than you think!
