Anatomy of a Dogfish Shark

Remember the mixture of dread and excitement that we experienced when we dissected worms and frogs in our junior high school science class? Imagine how the interest level would be particularly high when ABS anatomy students were able to dissect something a little more unusual.


Their parents may have dissected fetal pigs, but our students were able to explore the anatomy of SHARKS-- to observe and learn about the digestive organs, rerproductive organs, and the brain.

 

Sharks eat their food whole. This was demonstrated by the 2 crabs and 1 crab claw found in the stomachs of some of the dogfish sharks..
