"Dr. Wilmer W. Tanner, zoology professor and curator of the BYU Life Sciences Museum, examines a beautiful tiger trophy received by the museum in 1973. The specimen is part of one of the finest collections of mounted animals in the United States. The collection contains eight valuable items from Africa, Asia, and North America. Monte Bean, a Seattle businessman, donated these to the museum. Other important collections given to the Life Sciences Museum in 1973 included thirty-one head mounts and prepared skins given by Mr. and Mrs. Max A. Bench of Chatsworth, California, and eighteen specimens given by Mrs. Cleo Lillywhite of Covina, California." | Source:
