Times that by every Biology class in your school each year and you have one costly science experiment.

Between three to six million frogs are bred and killed each year for the purpose of dissection.

However, there are reasons why dissection has caused such a stir in schools - other than it being kind of gross. Many people believe there is nothing wrong with real dissection and that it is an important component of science class and many students enjoy dissection. The anatomy of an animal isn't going to change, so the same models, videos and online activities can be used by a school for years to come. The best part about virtual dissection tools is that they are all reusable. There are worksheets you can do, videos you can watch and even full-scale, life-like models that piece together to show you exactly where the various animal parts go. There are tons of resources available for peeps interested in anatomy but who aren't comfortable dissecting real animals.

Virtual dissection is typically done on a computer, either online or through a computer program - but that's not the only way it can be done.
