DESCRIPTION
Sheep brains, although smaller than human brains, have similar features. Due to their similarities, a sheep brain dissection is perfect for anatomy and brain structure studies!
Use a scalpel to dissect a sheep's brain, and see for yourself what the cerebrum, cerebellum, spinal cord, dura mater, corpus callosum, pituitary gland, pineal gland, longitudinal fissure, sulci, gyri, olfactory bulbs, brain stem, optic nerves, temporal lobe, frontal lobe, parietal lobe, occipital lobe, rhinencephalon lobe, optic chiasma, and other major structures and parts of the brain look like.
This plain preserved specimen comes with the cranial nerve attached.
Get the Sheep Brain Dissection Kit to receive dissecting tools, a dissection tray, a brain dissection guide, and a preserved sheep brain specimen all in one!

Note: Specimens are initially preserved with a formaldehyde solution, the best animal tissue fixative. The formaldehyde is then displaced first with water and finally with a glycol solution to produce a moist, low-fume specimen which will not decay over time.
