When contacting a Phoenix large animal removal company, you might want to have your animal taken for an autopsy before having it cremated or buried.

Determining the cause of death may be important for putting your mind to rest or, in the case of a disease outbreak, it may be an important step toward ensuring your other animals remain safe and health.

When sending your animal for a necropsy, it can be helpful to have a better understanding of the process that will take place. Generally, a necropsy involves the following steps:
- An inspection of the exterior of the body, which involves looking for signs of trauma and general observations about the animal’s physical health
- Collection of blood and other substances found in the body
- Opening the body to inspect internal organs
- Collection of samples from one or more of the internal organs
Samples taken from internal organs may include brain samples to check for signs of transmissible spongiform encephalitis (TSE) in a downer cow or samples of stomach contents to see what was eaten before death. The heart and lungs may also be examined for signs of disease.
