Domestication
What was the first domesticated animal? Dog for tracking, then herding
After animals become domesticated, they become dependent on man
What are some advantages and disadvantages of this?
Adv-Man can control unwanted genetic traits

Domestication
Dis-Most can not survive in wild Most poultry can not fly, But Why?

Also, some species have their wings clipped at birth Ducks Geese
