Abstract: This article analyzes the current application status of virtual simulation technology in practical teaching of animal medicine major, and combines with the teaching case of Jiangsu Agri-animal Husbandry Vocational College to explore its advantages in reducing costs and increasing efficiency, improving operational safety, optimizing teaching resource allocation, and enhancing teaching quality. Application effect display while ensuring the quality and quantity of offline experiments, the average offline training costs for professionals in this field have decreased by 43%, student participation in anatomy practice teaching has increased by 26%, surgical participation has increased by 55%, clinical simulation case participation has increased by 32%, student satisfaction in experimental teaching has increased by 21%, excellent student performance in practical teaching has increased by 24%, and teacher satisfaction has increased by 32%. The immersive learning environment constructed by virtual simulation technology significantly improves students'practical operation ability and clinical thinking ability. Based on the current application status, this article analyzes the challenges and solutions faced in promoting the deep application of virtual simulation technology in animal medicine teaching through technological integration and policy support in the future.
