Centaur skeleton

On the one hand, this centaur skeleton, created by the folks at Skulls Unlimited using the real bones of a person and a horse, is undeniably impressive.

On the other hand, the remnants of a dead human and a dead animal were fused to make this thing. Doesn't that seem... Well, disrespectful at best? Did the person give permission for this before they died, or was this just some random person who got cancer, and they died without knowing that one day their skeleton would be used in a little art project and put on display?
