Big Game
I was reminded of some nostalgic memories when I read about how students in Alaska are getting a chance to dissect donated organs from big game. It’s actually a pretty good idea, provided there aren’t any diseases or something getting passed to the kids. I especially liked the girl who mentioned that she didn’t like to touch dead animals and wanted to partner with the girl who was excited about the lab (and would do all of the messy work). Who doesn’t remember those great labs in school where much of the time your partner would be a complete mooch, and you would have to do all the work? Those were some great times! We never got any big game at my high school, although we did dissect cow eyeballs. All I remember is that they were squirty, hard to cut, and pretty gross overall. Oh, and their lenses bounced like rubber.
