    Teaching the beavers to use a microwave oven was of less benefit to the regional ecology than had been hoped for.

    How to lie with statistics.

    First, log log scale.

    Second, we know variance will scale with the mean, so they should have plotted against the coefficient of variation (sigma/ mu).

    Other wise they’d have us believing that there are either 1000 turds in the microwave or none.

    Puzzled BC wildlife ecologist can’t keep the bears from shitting in his microwave at night, further research is needed.

      Sure, it can happen to anyone once, but twice?
