Question: Refer to the Evolutionary Ecology Research (July 2003) study of the patterns of extinction in the New Zealand bird population, Exercise. Data on flight capability

Refer to the Evolutionary Ecology Research (July 2003) study of the patterns of extinction in the New Zealand bird population, Exercise. Data on flight capability (Volant or flightless), habitat (aquatic, ground terrestrial, or aerial terrestrial), nesting site (ground, cavity within ground, tree, or cavity above ground), nest density (high or low), diet (fish, vertebrates, vegetables, or invertebrates), body mass (grams), egg length (millimeters), and extinct status (extinct, absent from island, or present) for 132 bird species that existed at the time of the Maori colonization of New Zealand are saved in the NZBIRDS file. Use a graphical method to investigate the theory that extinct status is related to flight capability, habitat, and nest density.
