Maybe I'm missing something, but aren't dead animals just the ones that
aren't alive?  Why do you even need the Dead.Animals array if you filled
Live.Animals correctly?

## 4 animals in cohort and 3 years 
Live.Animals<-matrix(c(T,T,F, T,T,T, T,T,F, F,F,F), nrow=4, byrow=TRUE)
 Live.Animals
      [,1]  [,2]  [,3]
[1,]  TRUE  TRUE FALSE
[2,]  TRUE  TRUE  TRUE
[3,]  TRUE  TRUE FALSE
[4,] FALSE FALSE FALSE

# Dead animals are NOT Live.Animals?

!Live.Animals
      [,1]  [,2]  [,3]
[1,] FALSE FALSE  TRUE
[2,] FALSE FALSE FALSE
[3,] FALSE FALSE  TRUE
[4,]  TRUE  TRUE  TRUE

# or maybe use rowSums to find dead animals 
dead<- which(rowSums(Live.Animals) < 3)
[1] 1 3 4
