Snake Dissection-5/7/09







Our neighbor found this snake in the grass near our house. Dennis and Haley were so excited to play with this dead snake. We believe this is a corn snake.








Here is a picture of the corn snake. Top and Bottom.






Dennis getting to dissect the corn snake(AKA Rat snake). We used toothpicks to hold the snake down.





This a picture of the heart and lung.




This is the liver,stomach,gall blader,panceras, and small intestines.

The children love doing this and I'm really blessed to have a husband to help.
