Hi all (mostly Jeanne and Leah),
I looked through Karl's list below and focused mainly on the females and
juveniles (at least for now). The issues with the females - OVA, UNO,
and WEE - occur because they have census rows after their statdate. It
looks to me like most are just inconsistencies in data entry and these
cases seem fairly easy to resolve. I've written out a summary and
flagged original datasheets to ask Jeanne about when she's back at
Princeton.
For the juveniles - UT4, NZ5, CS1, DM1, D13, MN1, and MT5 - the error is
popping up because none of these guys have rows in the Census table.
The statdate for these individuals coincide with the time periods where
regular monitoring of Joy's, Nzige's, and Proton's groups slowed down.
It looks like there was typically enough information to determine births
and dates last observed, but I gather not consistent enough census
observations to warrant data entry in BaBase. I've summarized the
available information for these 7 baboons, but I'll wait to discuss
things with Jeanne next week before moving ahead with updates/changes.
