This display is on the third floor of the
Denver Museum of National History. The case brings the view of Lake Atitlan but of course there is zero justice done. I applaud the effort and the educational aspect of it though.

The plaque reads: Lake Atitlan, Guatemala: Each day in this cloud forest, warm rain nourishes lush tropical plants, providing habitat for many exotic birds and other wildlife. The Guatemalan government recently established a nature reserve here to save part of the habitat from human encroachment and exploitation. When I
looked up the word encroachment I had to laugh becuase that is what the government is doing so who saves us from the government?

Below a pictue of the real deal:
