So what are people's feelings on saving their pets? I wondered about saving the carapace but it seems creepy. Your thoughts?

I decided to perform an ad hoc necropsy to see what happened. Turned out it got impacted from the type of bedding I was using. I wasn't being morbid or anything; animal anatomy and physiology fascinates me and it was a learning experience in more ways than one.
But I totally understand everyone doesn't have the emotional fortitude to do something like that.
