animals and agriculture

Humans started life as a wanderer and gatherer. Later he learnt that certain plants wood provide him with food and he strarted to plant them near the streams and settled near them to grow and take care of them. When he had a lot of food from the crops he reared he began to discard the leftover and offals around his setlements and that is when the wolf began to visit his settlements for the scraps of food, later some wolves began to settle near the human settlements and maybe by chance some human female got hold of a wolf cub and seeing the cute cub began to rear and tame him, in course of time man made choice of his best friend and the earliest animal domesticated the dog. The dog helped his master by giving alarm of predators, guarding his property and providing him company.
