When someone takes measurements of bunnies in a field or crocodiles in a river
or bears in the woods, they are talking about different organisms.

I am afraid that mathematics and statistics are not your strong suit.

You don't understand the math, the background, the methodology.  Quite frankly,
you have no idea what you are talking about.
