Stage 1
The ichthyologists in the basement saw the first sign. The old tunnels began to leak in coffee-colored streams and threaten the shelves of neatly labeled and preserved sea life. One call confirmed this was not just another plumbing problem. The school kids had already been evacuated to the second floor and there was barely enough time to grab the computers and get out the door.
Stage 2
Dioramas became aquariums. The hair on the coats of the musk oxen floated all feathery like a fine kelp forest. The polar bears were back in their element. A walrus glided on his faux ice flow. Indian beads and insect legs swirled through in the imitation scenery.
Stage 3
An interesting smell: the rot of creatures already long dead. Clumps of what appears to be moldy rugs and soggy wood are decorated with random glass eyes. A bit of T-Rex jaw protrudes from an elephant hide. Water still drains from the surviving dioramas and a chimpanzee bobs helplessly behind the glass.
