HELLO --- This is NOT evolution as such, but what WE do -- "Selective 
breeding"
Simple as 1, 2, 3.   I know, been there, done that, with so many many kinds 
of BIRDS,
ANIMALS, FISH, (I've never been in LOVE with reptiles, so I'm not quite as 
experienced
with that group, but the amphibians, yes, a time or 2)   I've done so many 
different kinds of
breedings and trainings - YEP  --- you folks are right  -- I DO NEED TO 
START THAT
BOOK OR 2!!  Just think -- HONEST --- "I lived with a real WOLF for 14 
years"!!
Oh how wonderful it was.      Ok, I'll geaux.     Norma no L   but a lot of 
memories

The Soviet study on foxes proves that the change can happen that quickly.
The study was repeated in the 80's same result  When you lower testoserone, 
by picking the least
aggressive animals for breeding, you change the appearance just as much.  It 
seems that hormones
affect appearance more than was previously realized.              Sheila

  My PBS stations carried Part I of the latest doggy program last

called From Wolves to Dogs...
and it was very interesting. The claim is made therein that we didn't
domesticate wild wolves...not exactly..but that they exposed themselves to
us for our "easy pickin's"...
Anyway, Part II hasn't aired yet...so keep an eye out for Part I, and then
also for Part II. The white markings that showed up in an experimental
breeding (foxes, if memory serves) might interest y'all.               Peggy

Bas and I tuned in to it also. Said that the dog originated in eastern Asia
near Siberia. And, that the wolf evolved in only one life time (human's
lifetime)...... very quickly. They just simply changed from wolf to dog.
It didn't take thousands of years, but just about 80.
Can that be true?       Kate
