What are the ethical concerns over the current source of cadavers for veterinary schools?

0

A. A growing number of veterinary students and veterinary faculty are balking at the current sources of both small and large animals for use in anatomy and surgical psychomotor skills labs. The general public is also raising ethical concerns over the practice of euthanizing healthy animals for anatomical dissections at veterinary colleges and elsewhere. Many states and municipalities have passed legislation barring acquisition of shelter animals for these purposes.
