Ancient peoples placed on record by way of cave paintings and drawings, the taming of wild animals to serve mans purpose. These were of the gentle type that easily gave in to be controlled by humans. Most were harnessed to do work in the fields, to drag carts, and to carry heavy burdens. An example is an ox which did most of the field plowing and other tasks.

One major impact that resulted from the taming of wild creatures is the added resource for food. The domestication of meat and milk producing animals gave rise to food availability. Goats, sheep, and cows are often mentioned in old texts, both cultural and religious. The impact this has made on the human population cannot be overestimated as can be seen by the vigorous livestock industry.

There really is no historical record as to when dogs were tamed or how they earned their keep in a mans life. Folklore tells of a story that it began when a wild dog that was injured was left by its pack. The creature which was still very much alive found its way near the shack of a man. Taking a pity on the state the creature was in, the man fed it and nursed it back to health and since then the bond between dog and man has never been so solid.
