"I feel it is absolutely important that a student who comes to the university doesn’t meet a carcass, but first a living animal because veterinarians want to heal animals. We want to make the lives of the animals better. And it is very important for the students not to see only a piece of meat or a piece of bone, but a living animal right at the beginning. And the horses are dear to me and also to the students.”

12. SOUNDBITE (Hungarian) Dr. Péter Sótonyi, rector at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Budapest:
"There is an effect on the students, actually, a shock effect that they can see a living animal right now. And not only three or four years later having a chance to work with living animals.”

15. SOUNDBITE (Hungarian) Dr. Péter Sótonyi, rector at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Budapest:
"It is an interesting thing, I always say, that if someone comes here to become a veterinarian, it is certain that to be an animal lover. But I’m not 100% sure that every human doctor loves men.”

21. SOUNDBITE (Hungarian) Noémi Tamáska, veterinarian student:
"During our future studies, we will remember attending such a lecture and we will immediately think about what was told here by the rector, how things were explained. Especially the funnier moments will be remembered. So I think a lecture with live animals is really useful.”

STORYLINE:
A lecture hall full of first-year veterinary students in Hungary eagerly took their places for the first animal anatomy lesson of their academic carriers, when two full-grown horses clopped inside and joined the class.
The rector at the University of Veterinary Medicine in Budapest, Dr. Péter Sótonyi, coaxed one of the animals onto a riser at the front of the hall and used a stick of chalk to draw on the horse — from head to hooves — where its bones, organs and muscles could be found.
“I feel absolutely important that a student who comes to the university doesn’t meet a carcass, but first a living animal,” Sótonyi said of his young students.
Sótonyi has used this unique method for introducing students to animal anatomy for around 25 years, and is convinced it helps them engage more directly with the subject matter than studying solely through books, charts and models.
Horses, he said are especially suited to the task.
The horses, provided to the university each year by the Budapest Police, stood calmly throughout the lecture, encouraged by occasional treats of sugar cubes.
