The History of Animal Domestication from the Neolithic to the Middle Ages | Taming the Beasts (1/2)

Watch part 2 here: https://youtu.be/B23rLvCdekI The history of human civilization is the history of the animals that made it possible. This two-part series shows the rise of humankind through the lens of the animals that have accompanied us on this journey for millennia. We use their strength and superior senses, their flesh and instincts. And we enjoy their loyalty and friendship. It’s probably one of the greatest strokes of luck in human history: competitors and opponents in the struggle for survival became our companions. The films take an in-depth look at this evolved symbiosis with all facets between exploitation and adoration. “From the Beginnings to the Middle Ages” spans the period from the Neolithic to the Middle Ages and poses questions about the ethical, ecological and social consequences of this, not always voluntary, symbiosis. By following the long journey of this ever-growing relationship, it documents the changes these animals went through at the hand of people: tamed, optimized, trivialized and humanized. ------- Chapters ▷ 00:00 - Introduction ▷ 01:15 - Wild Horses ▷ 05:20 - Paleolithic, Mesolithic, Stone Age ▷ 07:20 - Wolves ▷ 16:04 - Aurochs ▷ 20:41 - Domestication of a Wild Mustang ▷ 36:16 - Herding Dogs, Sheep ▷ 44:43 - Finale of Taming a Wild Horse ▷ 52:14 - Credits #documentary #animals #wildlife #humanhistory #animaldomestrication #domestication #civilization #domesticatedanimals #animalbehavior #animalplanet ------- Subscribe to wocomoWILDLIFE: https://goo.gl/L5puvQ Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wocomo ------- Original title: From the Beginnings to the Middle Ages | Taming the Beasts - The History of Animal Domestication (1/2) A film by Wolf Truchsess von Wetzhausen & Andreas G.
