moreno_sheep — Bighorn sheep (1984)

Description

Dominance interactions (wins and losses) among 28 female bighorn sheep (Ovis canadensis) on the National Bison Range in western Montana (USA), observed by C. C. Hass in 1984. The data were distributed by L. C. Freeman on his network data page at the University of California, Irvine (no longer online), from which this version was obtained via the Internet Archive.

A directed edge (i, j) indicates that sheep i was observed dominating sheep j.

The network has the following properties:

  • Nodes: name, the identifier of the sheep; age, the age of the sheep in years (sheep with an age of 9 are at least 9 years old, and may be older).
  • Edges: weight, the number of occasions on which i was observed dominating j.
