In 1961 it was reported that Tanner, then an associate professor of zoology and entomology at BYU, was in the midst of a four-year study of the effect on Utah wildlife from exposure to higher natural radiation ( from petrified trees which can concentrate radioactive minerals ), resulting in areas with a 10 to 20 microcurie higher radiation level per hour than is typical of the surrounding geography.
