Plastination is a technique used to preserve bodies after death. It was developed by Gunther von Hagens in 1977, and replaces water and fat in the body with plastics. A recent exhibition called 「Animals Inside Out」 includes a shark, bear and octopus, as well as the goat pictured above, and allows visitors to see and touch the insides of the animals.
人體塑化技術用於保存死後屍體， 是由岡瑟馮哈根斯在1977年開發成功的。這種技術採用塑料取代人體內的水和脂肪。最近一個名為「動物裏翻外」的展覽包括一條鯊魚，一隻熊和一條章魚，以及圖中的這只山羊，參觀者可以觸摸這些動物的內臟。
