The teeth on the rabbit skull don’t match up with the picture of what aliens would picture. They might misinterpret some things but not the obvious characteristics.
The hind legs also have the joints in proportionally the wrong places compared to the skeleton. I reckon they gave it to the intern to reconstruct, and they just hastily banged it out last thing on a Friday afternoon after a liquid lunch.
I think it’s just jabbing at our early assumptions about dinosaurs seemingly lacking much in the way of bulk. We used to interpret them as these ultra-skinny weirdly mummified looking things rather than the plumper creatures many of them probably were.
The idea is that aliens find skeletons of animals we’re more familiar with and come to the same kind of wildly mistaken conclusions about them that we might have if we’d found rabbit skeletons without having first hand experience of modern rabbits.

Everyone knows aliens cannot make mistakes.
do you think someone just actually whipped up a 3d model just for a meme?
That would be dishonest, I’m pretty sure they sourced that from aliens.

The whole body doesn’t match. Those must be some stupid-ass aliens.
