Some animals build homes (eg, ants, wasps, birds) but not lions, monkeys, giraffes etc. Why? Are they lazier, or just stupid?

Many animals are scavengers, and they must continue to move in order to remain fed. It isn't practical to build homes every 1/2 mile.
Other animals have to follow their live-food sources. If something feeds on caribou, it needs to follow the caribou in order to survive. Again, it isn't practical to build homes every 1/2 mile.

well all animals have shelters its one of the necsecities of life but not all need to build some kind of structure a shelter is just a p,lace where food,air,water, is all provided and for some animals to get food or to stay alive they build a structure
