Initial Cat Domestication Possibly Begun In China Rather Than In Egypt

Dennis

Today cats are very common and popular pets but this leads also to the interesting question when the relationship between cats and humans started. Then there is the term domestication which means the further consolidation of the relationship in form of a close life together which we would call “keeping animals” or “keeping pets” today. The question when the relationship or even the further domestication of cats started is an interesting issue. Scientists try to answer this question since a long time but it is not easy as ancient cat remains are rare discoveries in archaeological sites.

Bearded Dragon Reptile

Dennis

Above you can see a photo of a Bearded Dragon Reptile. I took this photo some time ago when I visited a friend as he own two of them. I wrote about it at that time. I took one of the images of the article I posted and edited the image with an android app called Pixlr-o-matic. Well, the image in the article here is the result and looks different now than the original image. I have already posted other images I edited with pixlr-o-matic. I really can suggest to try this free app out as you can get pretty … Continue reading Bearded Dragon Reptile
