Now that is a gorgeous bridle!

Ha ha, at first I was like "Aww! cignets! How cute." And then I read the description.

Grammy, oftentimes the animals in these exhibits are donated animals that passed from natural causes. I know the natural history museum at the UW has a pygmy owl on display that my boss accidentally hit with his car. :(

Yah the babies are a little disturbing, but Romy is right they were mostly donated and died from natural deaths. And these exibits are so old. Not 100% how old but they were there when my mom was around 11 (I think) and she is now 50.
