Men and wolves have found a common language so quickly, because both of those and other acts the same social structure and in general the overall mental organization. The wolves live in pairs, but during the hunt the entire flock is going under the leadership of the leader. Their responsibilities are strictly divided: one wolf out on the trail, another partition off the road for future production, and the most courageous attack. When the attack on the duty of a herd of wolves - to cut off future production from other animals in the herd. The leader eats first. The rest of the pack may begin only after the meal, as it is satiated.
Perhaps the people who lived more or less settled communities, threw the bones and remains of food the hungry wolves, scoured around the settlement. Gradually wolves understood that a person has a perfect weapon: stone tools, arrows and traps. They felt his superiority as a hunter and began to perceive man as a leader, at a distance of accompanying him on hunting and returned with him to the village to get their share of production.
We can assume that over time people began to domesticate a wolf pups, resulting in a few generations there were wolves, who participated in the hunt is not as observers, as well as assistants, vspugivaya and cutting off the gazelles or antelopes.
To tame the horse, deer or an elephant, a person must first have their catch, put in a cage and crush their will by force. The dog also became the only animal, which obeys the power of man without resistance. It was a friendship of equals, based on mutual interest - hunting.
In some remote villages in Paraguay and Peru are still puppies, lost their mother breast-fed women. Such cases are likely to have occurred in early human exposure to a dog that could play a significant role in strengthening their friendship.
