In 2011 and 2015, two about 14,000 years old puppies were drawn from the village of Tumat about 25 miles (40 km) from Parmafrost in Northern Siberia. Within layers of icy soil, researchers found woolen huge bones with evidence of human processing. This surprised something whether the “tumor puppies” are waiting for the scraps at the wolves or even early dogs on the prehistoric butter.
In a new study, an international team of researchers analyzed the puppy, in search of a potential link to huge-related human activity that can support the theory. For the disappointment of some, however, he concluded that the puppies had no connection with the butcher – and, in detail, there were no clear links to human activity – and were actually similar to modern wolves.
To conclude this conclusion, the university -led team university in addition to “chemical fingerprint” in its teeth, bones and tissues, to determine if anything about their diet may be associated with human activity.
Researchers wrote, “Tumor puppies, two permafrost-reserved late Pictocene Canids, have been envisaged, which are litter and early domestic due to a physical relationship with a physical engagement (approximate) tightly mammoth bones,” written by researchers. paper Published on Thursday in quadrilateral research magazine. With “no evidence of huge consumption”, however, his data “does not install a link between the Canids and ancient humans.”
In other words, if the puppies were early dogs or wolves had wolf hanging along with humans on a huge-batching site, they are very likely that some giant meat would eat-but researchers did not find any evidence. However, he found that his final food consisted of Wulli rhinoceros.
Their analysis has shown that tumors were pillars “litter, which resided in a dried and relatively light environment with (mixed) flora and consumed a diverse diet, including Wulli rhinoceros in their last days,” researchers stated in the study. It came as a surprise, given that Vulli rhinoceros -even the baby Wulli rhinoceros -even to take a significantly small wolves represent an ambitious prey to take.
For example, these ice age wolves can grow larger than today’s wolves. An adult pack probably hunted a young woolen rhino and fed it to the puppies, and they might have died shortly after meals, as researchers found a piece of skin of an indescribable woolen rhino rhinoceros in one in their stomach. For their diverse diets, analyzes showed that they consumed both meat and plants, which were similar to modern wolves. Since they tolerate physical evidence of nurse, they were still receiving milk from their mother, as well as. The fossil plant remains in their stomach, providing insight into their prehistoric atmosphere, suggesting that they lived in an area with diverse houses and ecosystems.
Nathan Wales, co-writer of the Department of Archeology, University of York, said, “We also have an insight into his reproductive behavior.” “The pair were sisters and possibly being reared in a den and their packs were taken care of – today all the common features of breeding and lifting of offspring in wolves.” Furthermore, findings support previous genetic research which indicates that cubs were members of a extinct wolf population that were completely unrelated to modern dogs.
One reason researchers suggested that puppies were early dogs that their fur is black – a mutation was present only in dogs only. The study clearly challenges this theory, which complicates the mystery of the origin of the origin, Anne Catherine Runge, co-writer of the study of the University of Archeology, York, said in the statement.
“As long as many people will be disappointed that these animals are almost certainly wolf and not the early pet dogs,” Runge explained, “they have helped us get closer to understanding the environment at that time, how these animals lived, and more than 14,000 years old is more than wolves for modern day wolves.”
This paper comes in view of a highly controversial debate within the scientific community about ice age wolves, especially what biotech company collosal biochenes’ genetically edited canine is strict wolves, or just revived genetically revised gray wolves.
