\description{
A female-only projection matrix for an Asian elephant population,
included with the package for examples and vignettes. The matrix
has dimension 12 × 12 and a projection interval of 5 years.
}
\details{
Population/model ID: 249273 — a coarser model with a 5-year projection
interval for the Nagarhole National Park elephant population in India
(Chelliah et al., 2013).

The matrix was originally retrieved from the COMADRE Animal Matrix
Database using the `Rcompadre` package and bundled with this package
so examples and vignettes can run without requiring internet access.
