@Great Argus Yes indeed, and it wasn't the only specimen in there that had that. The taxidermist(s) that did these seem to have had a preference for aggressive expressions. I also noticed that several of the specimens had bright yellowish-green googly eyes that I don't think are accurate representations of the real eyes of these species... there was some Halloween-ish feeling to this museum.
 
I rarely visit natural history museums, but ZooChat photos have made me realize there is a lot of bad taxidermy out there!
