Mission: Share ‘Dissection in Reverse’

Picture this: A frog is taken from their home in nature. Later, their limp, dead body lies on a table in a science classroom. A student wearing gloves has cut into the corpse. The student feels a moment of remorse, wondering where this frog came from, so they ask their teacher, only to be told that the frog is “already dead” and that they must complete the project or get a failing grade.

Every year, over 10 million frogs, pigs, mice, and other animals are dissected in classrooms. They may have had their own interests and families, or they may have never had the chance to take their first breath—but none wanted to be killed so that students could carve up their bodies.

This isn’t just cruel—it’s also pointless. We have many compassionate teaching methods to choose from, and they’re usually more cost-effective and educational than animal dissection. And here’s the thing: School officials will be way more likely to go with non-animal options if there’s a huge, united group of students demanding this change. So what better way to build a base of animal advocates than by reaching your fellow students with a hard-hitting video?
