Sigrid is taking Zoology. It’s a
branch of biology concerned with the classification and the properties and vital phenomena of animals. Sig’s friend in her lab is a big rat. First, she had to “skin it”. Teacher said hunters were better at skinning than the A students. Siggie thought of her old Pop and how he skinned the gray squirrels. When teacher passed, she praised Sig’s skinning skills. She had to locate and identify all its innards! Like stomach, lungs, heart, kidneys. Sig could not find the spleen. In college I took anatomy and physiology. My lab friend was a fetal pig. I’ll just say— I endured the class. Sigrid is excelling! She has an A.

Fun stuff! When I took Zoology we were given a white rat to chloroform...apparently we did not give it enough as it ran to the end of our table after the first incision...trailing inards...I will never forget it!
