Best Answer

Animal in Dine' bizaad (Navajo) is naaldeehii or naaldlooshii ( an animal other than human).

Prounouced sort of like: naal-de-he or naal-dlo-she.

I'm not really sure what the distinction between beast and animal is in English. ONe can be used in a negative way but that doesn't happen in Navajo.
