I just returned from a research trip to South Dakota and started to enter my data into a spreadsheet and realized that there were 60 statisticians (You) meeting each Monday and Wednesday morning. When asked, the 60 statisticians were elated to help me in do an analysis. I wanted to determine if sharp-tailed grouse flight speed was affected by length of primary feathers. Don’t get overly excited, but here are the data. There are not very many measurements, so I presume they are not normally distributed. Analyze and interpret. In your own words (a few sentences will suffice), draw some conclusions about our results. Include all of the information necessary for publication.
