What happened to the animals of Pompeii after the volcano?

Alot of the animals got away before it erupted because animals have heightened senses for some things than humans and they could sense something bad was going to happen. That was kind of a sign for the humans as well because they saw alot of the animals fleeing. but although some animals managed to flee, alot still got trapped by the lava and ash and there are shells of the animals in the ruins of pompeii. The animals were entombed in ash, debris and pumice, therefore DYING.
