Well now I have to see the original pic

[–] LolaCat@lemmy.ca 37 points 1 year ago (1 children)

This is from a 2011 art event by Christina Davis & Jen Bervin at the Harvard Museum of Natural History

In conjunction with "Bizarre Animals" at the Harvard Museum of Natural History, Jen Bervin and I (with the instrumental assistance of poets from the Harvard literary community) created "This Object...." which opened on April 8, 2011. Text by Harvard students, Cambridge poets, Jen Bervin & Christina Davis, sponsored by the Woodberry Poetry Room, Harvard University. Graphic design of signage and photographs by Christina Davis.

The rest of the images can be found here

Just search for “bad taxidermy”

You could get this searching for Freddy Fazbear

It makes a lot more sense in the context of all the others signs and exhibits tbh

Don't we all make zoologically improbable faces to scare children, though?

I'll use it as my profile picture
