Also there's the small Grant Museum of Zoology in University College London... Full of weird and wonderfully desiccated and jarred specimens if you're into that
Seeing these specimens brought back a memory id rather forget, i was doing removals in Kings college london about 10 years ago, we went down to a disused room to clear some furniture out, I looked over at a shelf and there was a baby in a cylindrical jar just discarded off to the side, I read the plaque on it and he was a stillborn from the 1950's, as a Christian i was having a hard time for the hour we were in there with my morals as it was really getting to me that this child had just been left in a jar in an abandoned dumping room and from the amount of dust on the jar he had been in there for years. For that hour i was in there I was really debating if i should take it and lay him to rest finally, I can't even imagine the legal ramifications for doing that even though it would be the right thing to do as just leaving him discarded in a room just seemed the most disrespectful thing i think anyone could do, still not sure if just walking away was the right thing to do but it still bugs me today.
Break down what he just said! In the basement unlabeled for years? Well it was labeled, they just didn't know where the label was... 🤣 that's the truth about a lot of these places! somewhere along the lines the people involved lost interest, im sure of it. How many other things like that have just been lost?

Grow up. These specimens are historical knowledge of planet earth. Not gruesome at all.
Why? They are all dead
