Satira listened intently while Ricin explained the meat of today's lesson to the entirety of the class. It was a practical lesson on how to stabilize and transport a patient with some severe physical trauma and broken bones. Each wolf was assigned a symptom and given carte blanche on how they would go about treating it. The tiny wolf-dog sat quietly and watched as each of her classmates took their turns, explaining their methods and how they would aid the patient, all the while Satira thinking about her own problem to solve. Finally, when it became her turn, the yearling made her way up to the tables and looked over her available supplies. Labored breathing, loose ribs... She'd need something to keep the bones stable and prevent them from fracturing further. Tiny paws reached out to gather some thick moss to use as padding, along with a good amount of the linen gauze that had been provided for them. Then she approached her "patient" and looked over Ricin.

"Well, if I know the ribs are fractured, I'd need to keep them stable so they don't fully break until they heal," she explained, giving voice to her thought process. Tira then began to pick up bunches of the spongy moss, using delicate toes to feel around Ricin's ribs the way she would to locate which ones were fractured on a real patient. "Once I'd found the damaged ribs, I'd carefully pack the area with something soft, yet dense enough to keep them in place and prevent them from moving." The wolf-dog demonstrated by carefully surrounding one of his ribs with the moss, then winding the bandages securely around his chest to keep it held in place with enough pressure so that it wouldn't shift or move. "Then we bind the padding in place to prevent movement, like so." Satira used her feline claws to cut off the end of the bandage, tying it securely in a knot to prevent it from coming loose, further mummifying the poor yearling in an almost comical fashion. She looked over her work briefly, and satisfied with the results, stepped back with an amused smirk to let their instructor grade her performance.
