The goal of ecotourism is to provide clean, ready-to-use datasets
for example analyses in teaching, demos, and reproducible workflows.
It currently includes wildlife (e.g., cuttlefish) occurrence records,
tourism counts by region, and local weather for matching locations.

This is the relational dataset in this package:
To see documentation for any dataset, use:
?ecotourism::DATASET_NAMEThis is a minimal usage sketch. Replace DATASET_NAME with one from the
table above.
library(ecotourism)
# List datasets included in the package
utils::data(package = "ecotourism")
# Example workflow (replace DATASET_NAME with a real object from the list)
# data("DATASET_NAME", package = "ecotourism")
# head(DATASET_NAME)
# str(DATASET_NAME)
# Tip: quick summaries if dplyr is available:
# if (requireNamespace("dplyr", quietly = TRUE)) {
# dplyr::glimpse(DATASET_NAME)
