This display was spotted at the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. The same thing can be seen at a few other museums around the world if you look closely enough. Museum curators are a wacky bunch, according to one commenter who ought to know.

We museum people are a special breed. We could probably tell you which one, in detail, but on an 8th grade level.

The Cleveland museum has its own sense of humor. An upcoming event is called Think and Drink with the Extinct. In fact, they’ve got a schedule of "#ThinkandDrink" events this year, such as Fossils and Ferments, Birds and Brews, and Sleuthing with Spirits. -via reddit
