We're disecting baby pigs in my anatomy(sp) class, and the whole thought of cutting open a baby pig has unnerved me. I know that my teacher said the greatest respect we can give the baby pigs is by learning everything we can from them. Despite that, I still feel it's completely wrong to kill a baby pig just so we can disect it. I even tried doing just a little bit, thinking that maybe if I did some work on it, it wouldn't bother me as much. Boy, I was wrong. Doing that made it that much worse for me. And today we had to cut open the thoracic area so we could see its digestive tract. I was actually shaking from seeing him demonstrate what cuts he wanted us to do.
So do you think it's right to disect them and/or to kill them for such a purpose?
By the way, these are newborns. They still have the umbilical cords attached to them.
