They might not actually become animagi, but I'm not nixing the possibility they could try. ;) There's also metamorphmagus ability they could practice too. That could be one of Tonks' tasks in the next book. Some secret metamorphmagus training maybe. Harry has possibly displayed some inherent ability towards it already (inadvertantly making his hair grow back overnight).
btw, found that quote from Hermione in GOF:
GOF, Ch. 27 "The Egg and the Eye"
"Of course, the ideal solution would be for you to Transfigure yourself into a submarine or something," Hermione said. "If only we'd done human Transfiguration already! But I don't think we start that until sixth year, and it can go badly wrong if you don't know what you're doing ...."
"Badly wrong"? That sounds like some interesting plot potential. ;)
