I guess it sounds cooler to say "owl puke" than "owl pellet." I dissected one of those in elementary school. I found most of a mouse skeleton in mine.

We did those in 4th grade!

Yeah, it was one of my first dissections. Happy memories. :)

That was my first dissection in 2nd grade!!!

From owl pellets to rats...then fetal pigs next year....wow what a change.

I hate dissections!

I love 'em. I've done 3 fetal pigs, actually. And a mink last year. Not to mention all the "lower" animals...

we dissested a perch and a starfish in 6th grade and a cow's eye in 7th.

Yup. In addition to the 3 pigs and a mink, I've also done 2 frogs, 3 earthworms, a starfish, a cow heart, a sheep brain, a pigeon, a perch, and a centipede. And those are just the ones I remember.

I always liked bio.

I;ve also done a gummy worm!(that was for the MSPAP in 3rd grade)...tomorrow I'm going to watch a surgery at Johns Hopkins.

Have fun. Medicine was never my thing; I just like dissecting.

I love medicine...I want to be a trama doctor. I like to watch discovery health channel and watch the surgeries and what not.

I loved doing the owl pellets!!! *Good memories*. I remember we had to make the skelleton of a shrew, mouse, and some other small animals....fun stuff.

I've only done a frog, very fun. Disecting rocks! How could you not like it, aspiring? I have never had to do an owl pellet, thank God.

Some people think it's gross. Or unethical.

I feel so behind, I only did owl pellets, 2 frogs, a grasshopper, and an earthworm.

[insomniak]

Posted: 7/28/04 at 11:13pm

How do you disect a grasshopper? They're so small.

[Plum]

Posted: 7/28/04 at 11:15pm

Not all grasshoppers are that small.

That's sexy.

It was one huge grasshopper. It was like a grasshopper on steroids and it was disgusting.

Posted: 7/28/04 at 11:29pm

I dissected an earthworm, a frog, and a pig this year. I hate it!

[shlamdiddly]

Posted: 7/28/04 at 11:36pm

the only thing I hate about dissections is the smell of formaldehyde. Its disgusting.

[insomniak]

Posted: 7/28/04 at 11:40pm

We used rubbing alcohol. That smell will always remind me of dead frogs.

[Plum]

Posted: 7/28/04 at 11:46pm

One time we had a lot of pig dissections in a closed room. Eventually the smell got so bad we had to go outside. My throat was burning. My worst dissection experience by far.

[shlamdiddly]

yeah...the first time I ever smelled formaldehyde, I had to lean out ofthe window hlaf the time 'cause it was so strong
