Many of our National Parks are inhabited by large numbers of black bears (Ursus americanus), and their use of the Park can be a problem for humans. These creatures\' travels are governed by the need for food, as well as a high degree of natural curiosity. As it happens, some humans inadvertently or purposefully feed these bears, leading them to harass the human population. When bears become troublesome, one strategy is to transplant them

Solution

Let us prepare chi square table as follows

H0: Transplant and gender are not associated

Ha: There is associaton between them

?2 Calculations

Two-way Contingency Table


?2 = 10.432,     df = 2,     ?2/df = 5.22 ,         P(?2 > 10.432) = 0.0054

As p value is less than alpha

reject null hypothesis.

It is statistically evident that transplant outcome was related to gender
