Native Americans Treated as Wildlife

The National Museum of Natural History is hiring a Repatriation Program Manager. They will perform work related to the inventory, documentation, tribal consultation, & repatriation of Native American ancestors, and archaeological\ethnographic objects https://usajobs.gov/job/724451400
Why are physical remains of Native American communities in a "Natural History museum" anyway? How insulting, displayed among the stuffed birds, pressed flowers and shell collections. In how many US states have the natural history collections not been renamed "Natural History and Indigenous Culture Museum" yet?
