When I was younger in science class we had to dissect a frog. I did not want to do it because I never dissected anything in my life. The thought of cutting a dead animal into sections to see what looked like really grossed me out. I kept thinking how am I going to do this so I won't be so grossed out. I knew I could not say I could not do it due to the fact I would get a zero. I ended up doing it and it was not as bad as I thought. I really did feel sorry for the frog even though it was dead. I always wondered it they killed frogs on purpose so that we are able to dissect them in class. I want to think that they don't but I really don't know. I think it would be wrong if they did do that. I would not dissect anything ever again if I had a choice.

Oh my lord, this should be a terrible experience. In my case, i'm sure i would get a zero because i won't do anything. I won't do this job i think it's horrible and cruel to force young students to do these things, this would make people cruel to animals.

Hi tuckersheri...

I understand what you are trying to say. Actually, I have done dissection in our biology class. I took up Nursing and this is a part of every Biology class. I must do it to understand and know the parts of frogs which may be helpful in comparison with human anatomy. Yes, I pity the poor animal and I also feel gross. But I have to do it. Frogs are often used for this purpose especially in medical courses. I just do not know if I will be able to do it again today! lol

yes i have experienced it too in my biology class in high school...
is gross yes, but e have to do that, its part of our activity and so we must comply or else we will get a failing grade...but at least we do it in a group...its just bad for us, coz we personally catch the frog to be used in dissecting...huh! so we dissect the frog while it is still alive... sad we kill it...
but i don't really feel that bad about it, coz in our place we even eat frogs way back...hehe (of course the frogs that can be eaten)

I'm a physical Therapy student. Freshman year we dissected fetal pigs and rats. Last year I dissected a cat. It was rather interesting... This year no dissection, taking chemistry and physics. Next year it is going to be crazy. I'll be headed into my first year of grad school and we will be working in the cadaver lab. For those of you who don't know what that is it is humans. Oh and dissecting things smells aweful. any comments on the smell?

Back in college, we dissect a frog. That's was so horrible since that's my first time to dissect something. We are three in a group and all of us are scared to even slash the frog..and if we will not dissect it then we don't have any grade...so, what I did was, I was the one who dissect it but with a shouting mood...my whole classmates were laughing at me...LOL..

I really hate dissecting animals. Animals are the good friends of the human beings. We human beings are so longly in this single planet. We need the accompanishment of the animals. Also, dissecting an animals makes me fell really bad. I can not eat or drink for a long time if I do this. Anyway, sometimes we have to do something we do not like. This is the real life.
