I encounter lots of animals, domesticated? by whom?
A friend of mine related to me the last time we talked an encapsulated
version of some theory to the effect that it was not humans that
domesticated dogs (wolves) but the wolves themselves (there was
something about them over generations decreasing the distance at which
they would take flight).
I can believe it - it is my opinion that animals and very small
children are much more successful at behaviour modification than adult
humans (for whom, among other things, moral principles, etc., get in
the way).
Anyone know (where to find) more?
