The concept of a spirit animal in popular culture can be traced to the spirits of animals that accompany Sacrament Programs. While a person carried a Sacrament Program in a place of danger, a spirit animal would sometimes manifest and protect the bearer. This was a common occurrence around the turn of the century (the turn from 1800s to 1900s that is). Due to modern mass manufacturing techniques and long distance shipping after the War to End All Wars, today’s Sacrament Programs often have spirit animals that are out of sync with their location of use. For example, no one would expect a giraffe in Utah or a Moose in Zimbabwe. Correspondingly, these spirit animals do not manifest as strongly any more and often go completely unnoticed.
