If I've said it once, I've said it a million times. Humans never domesticated wolves. Ever. And even If they did, wolves wouldn't just turn into dogs because you made them your pets. The truth is, we really don't know how wolves branched out into dogs. But there's a theory involving "proto dog" that basically says when humans first made settlements, they'd create waste. Leftover food n **** , basically. And this would attract wolves that would come and get it. Wolves with a shorter stance would be quicker and be able to get the leftovers first. Natural selection, bla, bla, bla, wolves got smaller and protodog was a thing. I don't want to be really anal about this **** , but it just pisses me off that the creator of this pic made all this **** up acting like he actually knew what the **** he's talking about. Which he doesn't. **** , DUDE.

Arandomanon is right you know.

Secondly, all members of the canis genus could theoretically interbreed with each other. Same principles apply as with humans: crossing-over effect, one pair of each chromosome, mithochondrial DNA via maternal line, Y-chromosome from paternal line if male offspring.

Another less known hypothesis is that dogs evolved from a now extict genus, who was had a common ancestor with the wolves of those times. Those dogs then proceeded to interbreed with real wolves to form the ones we know today.

You're thinking of cats, who domesticated themselves after realizing that there were hoards of mice and rats that fed on the grain storages in human settlements.

Dogs come from wolves. Wolves were domesticated by humans, humans influenced in their evolution and they became dogs. Do you know humans influence A LOT on biological elements of animals they domesticate, right?

"when humans first settled..." No. First evidences of early dogs are much older than the first settlements. Your theory might be partially right on the waste thing. Wolves probably got nearer humans because of wastes human generated, it's true they didn't domesticate them intentionally (vegetal domestication became a thing much earlier than animal domestication), but it was a domestication nonetheless.

I prefer dogs to cats, but you can't really say only dogs were useful. Cats protected people from snakes, scorpions, rats (one of the leading causes of plagues) and other stuff I can't think of right now.

Also I never said cats suck or anything in my comment. They are meh creatures imo.But the content is about the survivalism of dog and man which goes back maybe 30,000 ******* years of selective breeding and slaying of the unloving ( its still being done today, if they bite for no reason, they put em down, a sad but necessary act ) which lead their brains to evolve into loving humans when they are ******* born...... Cats and dogs are not the same thing, they arent even similar. But if you ask me '' why dogs ? '' I can maybe show you this content and say I philosophically love their loyal purpose in life: to love.

Cats are still half domesticated dude. Why do people take them to vets in ******* cages ? Because they run away. Case dismissed. Cats can protect themselves and their offspring. The plague thing is not the same thing as dogs or wolves. Come the **** on they are not the same thing.

People takes dogs to vets on leashes because they run away are you saying dogs are only half domesticated? what is fully domesticated in that it never runs away? children? no those run away to... Really I can't think of a damn thing that won't run away given the right circumstances.

Or are you implying ALL cats run away always given the chance? because if that's the case then you just don't know jack **** about cats.

They are pretty much the same thing, humans found a creature that did something they liked so they rewarded them for it giving them food and shelter and considered them their property spreading them across the world and breeding them for specific traits. Over time they slowly stopped being bred for functionality purposes and started being bred for companionship and affection. Now the primary purpose of both dogs AND cats is to just love their masters and be cute and fluffy. Sure now and then dogs will 'defend' their masters, so do cats (albiet they're a bit less useful for that since they're tiny) and now and then cats will hunt small creatures (so do dogs, albeit they're a bit less useful for that since they generally just hunt rabbits and outdoor critters)

Also, people who takes dogs outside on leashes are people who have not trained their dogs enough. You should try raising a german shepherd. Its hella fun !
And the cages are not to protect the cat, are they ?....

Cats and dogs are very different in nature please do not put them in the same place. One has feelings and empathy, one has not. if you have no idea how to understand the difference, look up to the INTERNET, its always '' mans best friend '' and always '' my cat is evil and cute '' And cats are the only animals that approach their owners on their OWN terms. That is a known fact -if you ever had a cat, you'd know- And cats defending their masters is kind of ******** , I'm sorry. You ever heard of a guard cat ?! !...

Bottom line is: dont put cats and dogs in the same place they are almost exact opposites.

except dogs actually respond to strength. AKA if you let it know you're the pack leader it'll respect you and follow your commands, if you just play with it all day and never train it it'll smile as you're torn to shreds.

both humans and wolves are pack animals, we have an inherent need to be social. the fact that humans and wolves are so similar in hunting and social aspects probably contributed greatly to the establishment of integral social and hunting needs, add to that the human ability to anticipate the future and it's likely that such bonds provided more food for humans and greater survival for wolves taken in by humans.

after a couple generations the aggression of the master would be irrelevant to a properly trained hunting wolf.

Makes you think though, don't it.
What if humans were friendly towards sabre tooth tigers or other predators similar to wolves. Would we have domesticated/combat big-cats today?

The things is we did not domestic them via friendship we stole and murdered the adults took the pups and culled the violent/ aggressive ones whilst breeding the ones that were most tame towards human. We first domesticated the wolf about 40 thousand years ago.

Cats domesticated themselves, approaching humans on their own terms. The only animal in recorded history to domesticate itself.

Good thought, but the nature of cats predicts that we would have been an enslaved species or extinct.

I think it started like Game of Thrones did.
Chanced upon some wolf pups, raised them because why not, turns out they can be tamed, word spreads and suddenly it's a fad, boom dogs.
