Ah, it wasn't on a regular run. And slowly rotting carcii (smell aside) are quite environmentally friendly, no ?

He knew domestic dogs were descended from wolves, not foxes. He wanted to see if domestication could be repeated in a similar species that hadn't previously been domesticated. And they selected specifically for tameness - that dog like traits like floppy ears became more common suggests that the same thing happened with dogs.
