I'm comparing species counts between areas. My data is very similar to the below.
Species Location count
Yellow-frog Africa 3
Blue-frog Africa 0
Green-frog Africa 20
Yellow-frog Europe 0
Blue-frog Europe 100
Green-frog Europe 0
I'm not sure about what statistical test to use to compare between sites?? Especially so it takes into account that its zero count data.
My desired output would be to see if there is a statistical difference between:
- The sites overall
- Species (i.e. are there more yellow frogs in Europe or Africa).
- The species within each site (i.e. are there more blue frogs compared to yellow frogs)
My stats knowledge is pretty basic. I assume its regression, but I'm not sure about the family. Poisson regression/ binomial/ Zero-inflated.
[P.s. I'm working in R]
