A picture is worth a thousand regressions: Dr Adoons in the Kruger National Park

Nature is often full of surprises, but I was not expecting to find such convincing evidence to prove that numeracy is not a good indicator of human capital while on safari in the Kruger National Park. Having questioned the ability of numeracy to capture human capital attainment in a recent paper, Dr Adoons (pictured), with little need for statistical tables or econometric regressions, provide irrefutable evidence that my hypothesis cannot be rejected. Joerg Baten has a lot of explaining to do.

  1. That Baboon is probably thinking to himself ‘I got 99 problems, but counting ain’t one!’ lol. Indeed, it is ironic how simplicity can sometimes convey complexity.
