Bucket of Chicken sora987 Huh? At my school they let you do an alternate project if you didn't want to dissect the cat. Maybe you just need to get other people behind you to request the alternate project. I went ahead and dissected the cat, simply because if I'm going to do surgery with animals in the future, you have to work with dead bodies first. It's not really fair to force everyone to do the dissection, especially the cat, since some people wouldn't be able to handle the organs or the parasites in them. If you're in Normal Bio you're allowed to...But if You're in Advanced or Honors ( they're different...) You can't. D: What are you talking about? The class I dissected the cat in (among other animals) was an AP biology course. neutral Maybe it's just at your school where it's different.

i cut up a fetal pig freshman year in biology. there was no online option. i wasn't vegetarian back then, so it didnt bother me.
the pigs where they come from are slaughtered for food, and the fetal pigs would have died anyway. the school already bought the pigs, so it's either going to be dissected or thrown out.
next year i'm taking bio II, and i have to dissect the euthanized cat. the shelter euthanizes them anyway, so the school is being less wasteful by purchasing the bodies. there isn't a demand for dead cats that the shelter is supplying; it's a win-win for the school and shelter.
of course, i'd rather not dissect anything, but the schools try tend to try to make it as fair as acquiring the dead animals goes.
what is UNFAIR is my science class in sixth grade. we dissected these really big frogs that were caught in the wild, euthanized, and then purchased by the school. there was no online alternative. i didn't feel as bad back then because i wasn't vegetarian, but now that i am, i'm horrified. it's atrocious that they slaughter frogs for the "sake of science."
And it's not even like, important research. Just cutting up bodies for 12 year olds to dissect and then throw away.
