Will Azrael himself get the souls of animals? (To die)

As probably many of you know, Azrael (عزرائیل) has been appointed as the responsible angel who gets the souls of humans at the time of their life (when dying). But I was wondering if he (Azrael) is the responsible of getting the souls of animals as well? Or factually, animals will be died by another way? *Note: Please, present related Qur'anic verses or hadith (tradition) for your answers as much as possible.*
