Wyoming Honors Thorne

The Wyoming Game and Fish Commission renamed the Sybille research unit and Johnson Creek Habitat Management Area to the Tom Thorne/Beth Williams Wildlife Research Center at Sybille and the Tom Thorne/Beth Williams Wildlife Habitat Management Area

He and his wife, Beth Williams, a veterinarian and professor at the University of Wyoming, compiled a long list of scientific accomplishments, projects and research that were groundbreaking in the field of wildlife disease research.

The couple died in a car crash in December 2004.
