Disagree.
Some of the best medical training I got as a young MD was with a group of AF PJ's and some 'injured' pigs.
I don't like to see animals harmed needlessly, but there is no substitute for the intensity of an animal model.
I want my PJ's to have the best training possible. I've trained with good manikins--they are great. But they don't come close to trying to keep a real animal alive. Train like you fight? Train like you treat.
