In the meantime, here's what went down last week: The Deals.
FETCH PUPPIES SERIES
Instead, it’s possible that this behavior can be traced back before wolves were domesticated into dogs. Fetch Puppy is taking a break (and so should you), but a new series of daily deals will start Monday. The researchers acknowledge a limitation of their study is how small it is, but it causes them to reassess that interpreting human social cues came from domestication. But in those cases, the animals were previously trained to follow the cues or knew the person conducting the study. Previous research has shown that domesticated and non-domesticated species will follow human gestures if a food reward is given, according to the study. It was especially surprising that the wolves retrieved the ball for a person they had never met before.” “It was very surprising that we had wolves actually retrieving the ball,” Hansen Wheat said. One ran after the ball and returned it to the person three times. Two wolf puppies each retrieved the ball twice. Here are some of their favoritesīut the third litter of wolf puppies ran after the ball.
Scientists discovered 71 new species this year. Some wolf puppies are unexpectedly willing to play fetch, according to scientists who saw young wolves retrieve a ball thrown by a stranger and bring it back at that person. They included the test because it was used for domesticated puppies. The first two litters of wolf puppies weren’t interested in the ball, and the researchers didn’t expect them to be. None of the puppies, wolf or domesticated puppy, had experienced “fetch” before this. With the asymetric form of this dummy your puppy will learn to fetch the dummy in. One of those included a stranger throwing a tennis ball while encouraging the puppy to fetch and return it. Dummy is very lightweight and soft, prevents puppies from retrieving aversion. Then, both types of puppies went through a series of tests. She and her colleagues raised both wolf puppies and domesticated puppies from the time they were 10 days old. Hansen Wheat studies the effects of domestication on behavior. “It was so unexpected, and I immediately knew that this meant that if variation in human-directed play behavior exists in wolves, this behavior could have been a potential target for early selective pressures exerted during dog domestication.” “When I saw the first wolf puppy retrieving the ball I literally got goose bumps,” said Christina Hansen Wheat, study author at Stockholm University in Sweden. It was the last thing the researchers expected. Spontaneously, three of the 8-week-old wolf puppies were intrigued enough by a ball that was thrown to retrieve it to a person they didn’t know. Yes, cats really do bond with people, study says, even if they don't always show it
