In Nottingham England a equine massage therapist turns horses inside out. Gillian Higgins spent two years painting the anatomical structures on horses. She uses washable hypoallergenic paints that show bone structure, muscles, digestive system and more. The horses parade around in their decorative paints that draw in a very amused crowd. This isn't just for fun either, it teaches students and other people how things work on the inside.
I thought that this was a very interesting topic. The fact that she uses live animals to show how the anatomical system works is a great way to help people learn in a fun way.

I find it slightly that the horses are showing everyone their insides. This is such a creative way to teach others how living thngs work.
