Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. 2026 Datasets: Reproduction_ELA_data.rds and Morph_ELA_data.rds used to test for ELA effects on age at first birth, reproductive rate, sub-adult growth and adult body weight. Adult_repro_growth.rds and Subadult_repro_growth.rds used to test for trade-offs between reproduction and growth in adults and subadults, respectively. natural_death_moms.rds contains the IDs of females included in our fitness analyses Adult_residualsize.rds and Subadult_residualsize.rds contains age-adjusted weight (residual weight) used to test for association between body weight and fitness Code for analyzing these datasets is available at: https://github.com/rachpetersen/Cayo_ELA_LifeHistory
