In a recent anatomy lab, the professor announced that we were to remove the cranial half of our dog and put it into the preserved material bin.
In other words, "Cut off the front of the dog so you only have an abdomen and hind legs, and then toss the head part out." Kind of like that magic trick with the saw and the person in a box.
I was under the impression that at the end of the year we would be able to dissect the side that we haven't touched yet, for revision for the final. Apparently that's not the case, and having a bunch of dissected tissue is just a detriment since we'll only be looking at the abdomen now. After all, even if you take pretty good care of it, you can still get drying out and damage, which is not good for anybody, especially the cadavre. At any rate, we now only have half a dog.
