A portion of the exhibit, titled “A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius,” displays the bodies of preborn babies who have been preserved through the plastination process. Although the producers of the exhibit stress donor consent so explicitly, they do not publicize the source of the preborn babies. The bodies of these children may have been obtained following miscarriage but there is grave concern that the “specimens” were collected through elective abortion.
