Speak with animals allows the caster to "comprehend and communicate with animals." Are there any other spells that do something similar for animals? I know that dominate animal allows you to control an animal using simple telepathic commands. Is there any other spell that allows verbal, telepathic, etc... communication between the caster and an animal? In particular, I'm looking for spells which list the caster as the target, cf speak with animals as opposed to dominate animal which lists the animal as the target.

Why would you need any other spell than speak with animals?
It's like asking for another spell besides knock to open a door.

(I'm confident that I am missing something.)
