Abstract: An animal irradiation system includes a radioactive source and an irradiation fixing apparatus having irradiated bodies. The radioactive source includes a beam outlet having a first central axis. Radioactive rays generated by the radioactive source exit from the beam outlet and irradiate the irradiated bodies. The radioactive rays define a main axis around the first central axis. The irradiation fixing apparatus includes a box body, which is divided into multiple accommodating chambers around a second central axis. Each accommodating chamber accommodates an irradiated body. Multiple first irradiation holes corresponding to the accommodating chambers are formed on the box body. The radioactive rays pass through the first irradiation holes and then irradiate the irradiated bodies. A maximum distance from an inner wall of each first irradiation hole to the first central axis is less than a minimum distance from an inner wall of the beam outlet to the first central axis.
