Is the Angel of Death one for humans and other creatures?

The Angel of Death is specifically entrusted with taking the souls of humans. There is no evidence that he is entrusted with taking the souls of animals. This is a question that yields no benefit, and the Companions, despite their eagerness for knowledge, did not ask about it. Had there been any benefit in it, Allah would have clarified it in the Qur'an or the Sunnah.
