gross?? I think it comes down to interest Giant Lobster.
I went to the Anatomy excursion earlier this year to UNSW museum to see dead body organs. If that's not enough, the first/second year medical students were poking a dead leg, and the body in the examination room or something.
So it's obvious little embryoes wouldn't be as gross (if that's what you want to call it) as a real interstinal of a human body. :)

They got them from donors!! Once the body is dead, they give it to UNSW so that the older students can use them, I think after those students finish with them, it's being cut into pieces without the skin. then the first/second year student can reuse it. Unfortunately, by observation on that day, they didn't quite treat the dead body with much respect, they used that metal tool to poke at it rather than EXAMINATE it.
(the smell of the room is weird)

Well, you need to use a probe to see the deeper structures of the limb/organ. You can't really see much from the surface.
