Dogs evolved from wolves over 15,000 years ago. The exact process of domestication is still not fully understood, but scientists believe that it began when wolves began to scavenge around human settlements for food scraps. Over time, some wolves became more comfortable around humans and began to form relationships with them. These wolves were likely more docile and less aggressive than other wolves, and they were more likely to survive and reproduce.
As humans and wolves interacted more closely, they began to select for specific traits in the wolves that they preferred. For example, humans may have selected for wolves that were more friendly, loyal, and intelligent. Over time, these selective pressures led to the development of dogs, which are now one of the most diverse species of mammals on Earth.
