When I have science, the Anatomy class are disecting cats. Do you think it wrong to disect these poor animals. Well it is sort of a good cause, instead of the cats being buried after living at a shelter a while, be donated to science, where people can learn. What is your opinion on this topic?

As long as the cats died of natural causes, I don't mind it.
I don't see why people would go out and kill them deliberately just for the purpose of disection, but that would be wrong. I could see why some people would have a problem; I guess that really depends on how closely you associate cats with humans. I never did understand the purpose of disection lessons, though. Most of the time the students are just cutting and poking blindly, the majority of the boys throwing some decapitated body parts around. The class'd probably learn more if they were just shown a video and a diagram or something, not to mention it takes twenty minutes just to get all the gloves and aprons on.
Or maybe that's just my school.

We had a horrible eighth grade science teacher, so it was more like fourty minutes getting ready.

its sad that there gone crying but it can not just help your education but also help biologists find a way to make cats lead a longer and healthier life. its kind of recycling, i want to be an organ doner.

My logic has come to this conclusion:
Dissection is justified only if it helps save more animals than are killed.
Only humans who know that they are going into a career where they need to know biology from firsthand experiences (such as being a veterenarian) should be allowed to perform dissection.

Killing an animal just to dissect it is absolutely sickening, if you ask me.
If the animal died of natural causes, then I don't mind.

yeah... it depends on how they are getting the animal that they are disecting, or organ for that matter. But if they are already dead, then there should be no problem (my cousins once disected a mouse that got squished by a hay wagon haha)
but disecting things can be a good way to learn ... but if they are purposly killing animals, I think that's wrong, unless those animals are a problem because their population is so high (there are some species in parts of the world that are like that you know)
But disecting things can be fun.. if you are sickly deranged... but it is also for science class.. you can't exactly get away from it lol

I think it's wrong to kill an animal just to dissect it even if it is from an overpopulating species.
I'm getting tired of humans deciding whenever an particular species needs to be killed because their population is too high. It's Nature's decision when to start killing off an overpopulating species, not ours.
