Zoos should be places to learn about wildlife and biology.

Took my daughter to a goat dissection when she was about 10--the same daughter who brought home a lamb that had strayed from its nearby flock. A local home-school group put it on, with a dozen or so kids in attendance, each with a parent. We live in suburbia and aren't farm people, so it was quite novel to everyone. (My dad always threatened to take me to a slaughter house to experience reality.)
All were fascinated. Of course, I'm unaware of whether this event might have spurred any later interest in veterinary or human medicine, or biology, etc., although my daughter took a human anatomy course ten years later. My other daughter wasn't interested in attending that dissection, yet she's done plenty of dissecting herself since, with her graduate degree in biology and with her students. Very worthwhile event, as I expect the lion dissection was.

Back in high school in Biology we were dissecting rabbits. I mentioned to the teacher that I had a whole mess of rabbits from hunting. He asked, and I brought some in all cooked and hot to share with the class!

What’s the big deal, when I was 8 I had to skin and gut the rabbits I shot.
Dressed out a deer and skinned it when I was 10.

Wow, in anatomy and physiology we had to use domestic cats. Would have been a lot easier with lions, and you could have a nice BBQ after. Tastes like chicken??
