Preserved Pigs Pigs
The Classic Anatomy Lesson
Inquiry-based pig dissection surpasses anything students can learn from print or pictures
Use pig dissection as an important part of your inquiry-based instruction to encourage students to think critically. Because pig specimens are larger than, for example, frogs, they are ideal for students working in pairs or small groups, and their internal structures are typically easy for students to locate and identify. Dissecting a pig presents a real learning expe- rience that far surpasses anything most students can have from words or illustrations alone. Students can:
• Learn vertebrate anatomy and practice dissection skills at the same time
• Examine organ systems and understand the relationship between structure and function
• Investigate the similarities and differences between pigs and other mammals, including humans

Forensic Dissection Kit Featuring Carolina’s Perfect Solution® specimens
• A fresh, new approach to a classic mammalian dissection • Forensic education that really engages students • Provides a “real-world” link
Capitalize on the current popularity of crime scene investigation TV with this unique forensic lab activity. Students conduct a pig dissection by modeling the protocols used by a pathologist for a human autopsy. They carefully record the external features and use a typical “Y” incision to open the body cavity for a detailed examination. Then they remove all of the organ systems. When stu- dents complete the forensic dissection, they return the organs to the body cavity and suture the incisions. A Carolina’s Perfect Solution®
221489 Carolina Forensic Dissection Classroom Kit adult pig heart and pig kidney are also included for comparison with the dissected specimen. A set of 7 prepared slides allows students to extend and enhance the dissection by examining some of the tissue types found in each system.
The detailed teacher’s manual and student guide have autopsy instructions, extension activities, reproducible student sheets, background information, a glossary of terms, and dissection questions for discussion. The Student Kit is for a small group of students working together at 1 station. The Classroom Kit is for a class of 32.
