Humans and dogs = 20k years

💾

I love dogs.

While there’s been 60-70 million years since we last shared a common ancestor, humans and wolves share so many similarities.

We’re both highly social mammals that live in close family groups, we’re top predators with similar prey breadth, and we invest a lot of time in rearing our young.

Through a language of food, reward, and cooperation, wolves were easily able to socialize and bond with humans - both socially and chemically- over 20,000 years ago. This process is why domestic dogs are still so prevalent today, and why their species name means - the Friendly Wolf.

In ancient times dogs were integral to human survival. Today they serve as tools and companions. And I have no doubt, as far into the future, they will remain alongside us to the end of days.

High Temperature Hydrogen Attack (HTHA) is a problem in the fertiliser industry and others when bubbles of methane form in steel. I use Non Destructive Testing (ultrasonic scanning) to see them. Here's why it happens.
