Purpose/Abstract A minks body function has similarities as a humans body, therefore, we use minks as a understanding of the human anatomy. Introduction Anatomy classes often use minks for dissection to help teach students about the anatomy of a body. Dissections are the cutting apart and separation of tissue and it is useful and follows comparative anatomy, the study of different species similar to the human body. Mink dissections are useful because they teaches students through visually and hands
A mink is a good specimen to study the human anatomy because it is so closely related in internal features to that of a human being. Since these features are so closely related it provides a sort of “model” that can be used in order to better understand the anatomy of humans. In the muscular system the main differences between minks and humans are mostly the size and shape of each muscle. However, for example the temporalis differs in that it has different locations within the mink and human. In
The digestive system, in organisms like the mink and human, is supposed to break down the food being eaten to transfer into energy. This energy helps other functions of the body that would in turn keep it alive. The digestive system includes organs such as the stomach, intestines, liver, etc. Digestion starts at the mouth, though. With the observation of the digestive organs of the mink, an individual can see that the entire liver is the darkest looking color of the organs in the gastrointestinal

This is the reason each of these mink was chosen for mating, with hopes of increasing survivability as the Canadian Center for Fur Animal Research is facing Aleutian’s Disease.
