The Animal Science II class at Starmount High are dissecting fetal pigs this week. The class has worked through both Anatomy and each part's function as well as learning the animal’s various systems such as the digestive system. They are now putting their knowledge to work by identifying each part, discussing its function in real world application. Several of these students plan to pursue a career as Animal Technicians and Veterinarians.
