{{examples}}

* In one episode of ''[[Durarara!!]]'', we see [[Headless Horseman|Celty]] watching a documentary on one of these in the background while Shinra speaks on the phone. Celty, as it turns out, [[Why Did It Have to Be Snakes?|is terrified of aliens]].

* In an early episode of ''[[Daa! Daa! Daa!]]'', Miyu tries to call her mother (working overseas for [[NASA]]) for advice on what to do with the suddenly-arrived alien baby, but is discouraged when her mother starts enthusiastically (and [[Squick|graphically)]] describing the alien autopsy video she's watching.

* In ''[[X-COM (Video Game)|X-COM]]'', the player's scientists can perform these. Aside from giving you points when it's finished, it sometimes gives you information about what that particular alien is vulnerable to. However, expect lots of inaccuracies (for example, Reapers are said to have flammable hides but incendiary damage is really buggy in the game).

* The Area 51 stage of ''[[Perfect Dark]]'' has a level which involves rescuing an alien from vivisection, and another (bonus) level involves sabotaging the autopsy of an already dead alien.
