So in this teaching, the Buddha has advised if a being abiding in the animal realm sees the Four Noble Truths, they can become human.

In the following YouTube (English version is not available), we can watch a superb illustration (at 6:10) of how the being Angulimala dwelling in the animal realm, by realising the Four Noble Truths, is reborn human.

And at that time in King Pasenadi's realm there was a bandit named Angulimala: brutal, bloody-handed, devoted to killing & slaying, showing no mercy to living beings.

Angulimala Sutta: About Angulimala Interesting how the first words in the video below are: "here, a mob mentality knows no mercy..."
