South American travelers George Freeman and John Murphy of Holyoke Massachusetts return from a three month Colombia and Venezuela trip with a tiger cub two wild turkeys and about 3600 orchid bulbs. The tiger, boxed in a wooden crate with wire screen, showed aggression on arrival biting and scratching a crew member. The men say the animal was bought as a gift for a Massachusetts friend.
