The deadly Ebola virus is a threat to both people and gorillas in Central Africa. An outbreak in 2002 and 2003 killed 91 of the 95 gorillas in seven home ranges in the Congo. To study the spread of the virus, measure "distance" by the number of home ranges separating a group of gorillas from the first group infected. Here are data on distance and time in number of days until deaths began in each later group. (Data set may be found here.) Distance 1 3 4 4 4 5 Time 4 21 33 41 43 46
