Using the otolith sulcus to aid in prey identification and improve estimates of prey size in diet studies of a piscivorous predator
Data Set
Contains length measurements and mass collected from the stomach of the stranded dolphin
PLease note that one or more length columns originally contained the word broken instead of a missing value in about 3% of the records.
Since these are numeric columns, the value broken was moved to the newly added Column comments with the comment being Broken Length Measurement when
the word broken was in a length column. All comments were concatenated when there were multiple broken measurements on the same record.
