Description:

Reynolds (1994) describes a small part of a study of the long-term temperature dynamics of beaver Castor canadensis in north-central Wisconsin. Body temperature was measured by telemetry every 10 minutes for four females, but data from a one period of less than a day for each of two animals is used there.

Variables:

The beav2 data frame has 100 rows and 5 columns. This data frame contains the following columns:

day

Day of observation (in days since the beginning of 1990), November 3–4.

time

Time of observation, in the form 0330 for 3.30am.

temp

Measured body temperature in degrees Celsius.

activ

Indicator of activity outside the retreat.
