对动物木乃伊的研究表明,在大型动物墓地发现的大多数木乃伊都是被故意杀死以供使用的未成年动物。人们认为这些鸟是在大型集中农场故意繁殖的,然而,一项新的研究表明,大多数朱鹭实际上是在野外捕获的,可能只在农场饲养了很短的一段时间,然后就被献祭并制成木乃伊。
埃及人认为某些动物是神灵的活体化身。这些动物死后会被制成木乃伊并埋葬,以求得永生,然后由另一个活体化身代替。在公元前一千年,许多与某些神灵有关的动物被特别饲养在寺庙内,作为该神的化身,然后成群结队地制成木乃伊,并存放在地下墓穴中,以求得永生。古代对这些动物的认识、这种做法的演变以及做法中的变化对我们来说并不容易了解。但在地下墓穴和其他地方发现的数十万个精心准备的动物木乃伊证明了它古老的影响。
