complete_oldR Documentation

Complete survey data from 1977 to 1989.

Description

Data on individual rodents captured at the Portal Project and the plots they were captured in. This data.frame is the same as 'complete', but only containing data from 1977 to 1989. This is so that instructors can have learners begin working with a clean, older dataset, and later introduce a messy version of the newer years of data, in whatever format fits their needs.
