Example 1:
National Forest Deer Population in Danger?
Wildlife conservationists are concerned that the deer
population might not be constant across the National
Forest. The scientists found that there were 144 deer
in a 16 square mile area of the forest. In another part
of the forest, conservationists counted 117 deer in a
13 square mile area. Yet a third conservationist
counted 216 deer in a 24 square miles plot of the
forest. Do conservationists need to be worried?
