I don't know how this completely fits in with your question, but I've had Wolf-mix friends, that I used to join in with when they would sing. It was very spiritually nourishing and deeply uplifting, the same way as a moving prayer service, or a meditation session.
If you look at animals in repose and see the expressions on their faces, it looks for all the world like they're praying in some fashion. I'm not sure if that's me anthropomorphising them or not.

Now that is a very interesting question. I believe that without a doubt they do, but it depends on the animal. I do not believe that they are given the ability to know right from wrong, nor are they presented with a choice in the manner that humans are, but I do believe that the birds singing in the morning are sometimes singing praises to God.

I do not care how corny it sounds. Sometimes I go outside and I can hear them making noises, and I think that they are just talking to each other, and not every bird sings, but sometimes I think that they do sing praises to their Creator. They are not the only animals either. The Bible says:
Mr 16:15 And he said unto them, Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature.
Col 1:23 If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister;
and...
Re 5:13 And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

So, I believe that they do, how they do it, I am not sure. I think singing is a good example, but it might be playing, dancing, or doing good things. Many times I think that I see animals being in delight of just being alive. God gives life, in fact God is Life, and I just cannot help but wonder if they are just celebrating in Life, and therefore, in their own way, celebrating in God.

In the same manner, all things seem to cling to life, and I wonder, are they really clinging, in their own way, to God? Also, they cling to each other sometimes, for protection, sometimes for love, and I wonder if they learned this from God and praise Him by practicing what He taught them.

I often wonder, when I see some animal dancing for joy in the grass, just who are they dancing for? and why are they so happy? and when you look at their life, you have to wonder because I can't imagine them doing this for their own sakes especially when their lives are sometimes so hard.

Animals don't experience the ought to make up deities of their very own photograph and pray to them. we're not that plenty diverse from animals. we are animals and thank you to a wierd twist of destiny we superior the skill to sit down down around and argue approximately if animals worship god or no longer. Im happy to work out that we are all utilising are state-of-the-artwork reasoning organs to communicate lots of those questions endlessly,

Animals worship God by their very existence. Doing as they were created to do, they glorify the Majesty of God.

[6:38] There is not a moving (living) creature on earth, nor a bird that flies with its two wings, but are communities like you. We have neglected nothing in the Book, then unto their Lord they (all) shall be gathered.

[17:44] The seven heavens and the earth and all that is therein, glorify Him and there is not a thing but glorifies His Praise. But you understand not their glorification. Truly, He is Ever Forbearing, Oft-Forgiving.

[22:18] See you not that whoever is in the heavens and whoever is on the earth, and the sun, and the moon, and the stars, and the mountains, and the trees, and Ad-Dawâb (moving (living) creatures, beasts), and many of mankind prostrate themselves to Allah. But there are many (men) on whom the punishment is justified. And whomsoever Allâh disgraces, none can honor him. Verily! Allâh does what He wills.

That's easy...

First they have sex and make many babies.

Then they will either kill and feed on another animal or be killed and eaten by another animal.

Then sometimes they will sing and pee on things to show that God gave them that particular piece of land.

well i guess animals have their own special way just like each humans do. maybe animals worship by praying in their mind or making noises?

All I know is that they have spirits too and they live and breath through God. They know him and maybe they can worship him somehow.
