Pbs: Nature: Dogs That Changed the World

Curated by ACT

How did the dog actually transform human society, and how has man radically transformed the dog? This site discusses the hard-wired behavior of the dog due to evolving from the "savage and wild wolf." The site includes a video [12:10] that discusses the dog's various "jobs" and how these jobs have shaped their personality. Students can roll over each dog breed to see each dog's region of origin and learn more via an interactive map.
