In the first episode of the anime, humans and birds are shown to have turned
into stone. But dogs, fawns, etc. didn't.

Why did humans and birds turn into stone but other animals didn't?

It seems whatever happened was aimed at humans, just like how they show that
once it was aimed at only birds, and not humans.

It is probably going to be revealed.
