Certain types of monsters may be created with[1] objects in their starting inventory appropriate to their species. A pretty comprehensive spoiler can be found here. Additionally, they may be eligible for a random offensive item, miscellaneous item, and/or defensive item.
Spiders and snakes generated during initial level generation get a random item on top of them (to hide under).
Monster starting inventory can provide valuable hints at the true identities of objects with randomized appearances.
Death drops
Sometimes, random objects (death drops) can be found on a monster's corpse it did not have when alive. Also, golems, dragons, long worms, unicorns, and some unique monsters get certain appropriate non-random "death drops".
