Among the exhibits at the museum were the taxidermied bones of both Bullet the Wonder Dog and Evans’ horse Buttermilk. Additionally, the stunt horse Trigger Junior, who was used as a backup for the original Trigger, was included. It was difficult to keep the animal relics in good condition because they needed to be washed and their glass eyes cleaned on a regular basis, among other things.
