This mounted tiger display reflected the museum's strong interest in zoology. Indeed, the zoological section was impressive, containing a striking array of specimens that ranged from monkeys, leopards and dolphins to birds and reptiles. Apart from animals, the museum's extensive collections also included botany, geology, ethnology and numismatics.
