Re: Can animals attain moksha?
Pranam
Yes by the grace of the Lord anything is possible, in this relation to this the Moksha of Gajendra, the elephant in distress being killed by crocodile comes to mind. we must remember this is an exception to rule. Gajendra Moksha is narrated in Srimad Bhagvat 8.3.1.
apparently the elephant remembers his previous life of Indradyumna and by the grace of the lord at the time off his distress starts praying and was saved from the crock and attained Moksha.
Jai Shree Krishna

Rig Veda list only 33 devas, they are all propitiated, worthy off our worship, all other names of gods are derivative from this 33 originals,
Bhagvat Gita; Shree Krishna says Chapter 3.11 devan bhavayatanena te deva bhavayantu vah parasparam bhavayantah sreyah param avapsyatha Chapter 17.4 yajante sattvika devan yaksa-raksamsi rajasah pretan bhuta-ganams canye yajante tamasa janah
The world disappears in him. He is the peaceful, the good, the one without a second.
