Description
Our standard formalin pig, shipped in Carosafe® and packaged in a damp-packed, vacuum-sealed bulk bag. Free plastic bags included with all vacuum-packed pigs. Size, 7–11″. Single injection: arterial system injected with red latex.
Because pig specimens are larger than frogs, they are ideal for students working in pairs or small groups, and their internal structures are typically easy for students to locate and identify. Students can:
- Learn vertebrate anatomy and practice dissection skills at the same time
- Examine organ systems and understand the relationship between structure and function
- Investigate similarities and differences between pigs and other mammals, including humans
