Abstract

Abraham H Maslow once said, “I suppose it is tempting, if the only tool you have is a hammer, to treat everything as if it were a nail”. Kathleen Alexander and her coauthors describe a game scout’s unsurprising finding in Botswana’s Okavango Delta, and go on to consider the statistical equivalent of that famous hammer!
