where do dogs originate from
In 2002 researchers said dogs originated in East Asia. But a 2010 study said, no, it was the Middle East. Now the original researchers bark back! I love dogs.
Many thousands of years ago, somewhere in western Eurasia, humans domesticated grey wolves. The same thing happened independently, far away in the east. So, at this time, there were two distinct and geographically separated groups of dogs. Let’s call them Ancient Western and Ancient Eastern.
