The Mummifyed Animals, to!!
The Egyptians only mummified the sacred animals because it would please the god or goddess. When a sacred animal died its skin was dried out and then it was wrapped in cloth and put into a coffin. The coffin animals were put in were much different because it was made in that animals form. The animals they mummified were cattle, cats, dogs, monkeys, ram, baboon, crocodiles, ibis, falcons (hey that reminds me are school mascot is a falcon), and hawks. They would put these animals in a special graveyard. This is where their gods and goddess would watch over them to see if they were going to have a good after life
