Early humans began domesticating animals over 10,000 years ago, starting with dogs. Ruminants like cattle, sheep, and goats were domesticated for food, followed by pigs which could eat scraps. Horses were domesticated for transportation and labor. Domestication involves animals being kept for distinct purposes, breeding controlled by humans, and survival dependent on humans. This allowed steady food sources and use of animals for work, companionship, and religious purposes. Selective breeding eliminated undesirable traits. Sheep were the first livestock domesticated in the Middle East around 11,000-15,000 years ago, followed by cattle near Europe and Asia 10,000-15,000 years ago, then horses in Eastern Europe

Few countries in the world have no sheep. They are found in tropical countries and in the arctic, in hot climates and in the cold, on the desert and in humid areas.
There are over 800 breeds of sheep in the world, in a variety of sizes, shapes, types and colours.
Sheep were domesticated long before the dawn of recorded history. Wool fibres have been found in remains of primitive villages of Switzerland that date back an estimated 20000 years. Egyptian sculpture dating 4000-5000 B.C. portrays the importance of this species to people. Much mention is
made in the Bible of flocks, shepherds, sacrificial lambs, and garments made of wool.
The Roman empire pried sheep, anointed them with special oils, and combed their fleece to produce fine quality fibres that were woven into fabric for the togas of the elite.
Perhaps the first ruminants domesticated by man along with goats, sheep are a very valuable and important asset to mankind.
Sheep is a important livestock species . They contribute greatly to the agrarian economy, especially in the arid/semi-arid and mountainous areas where crop and /or dairy farming are not economical. They play an important role in the livelihood of a large percentage of small and marginal
farmers and landless labourers engaged in sheep rearing. A number of rural-based industries use wool and sheep skins as raw material. Sheep manure is an important source of soil fertility, especially in southern states.

2. Early Domestication
• Humans began domesticating animals more
than 10,000 years ago beginning with dogs.
• Ruminants (cattle, sheep and goats) were the
first food animals to be domesticated followed by
pigs, possibly to dispose of table scraps and
waste products.
• Horses and cattle were domesticated primarily
for transportation and draft work purposes.
• Early people found animals that form large herds
or flocks and eat a wide variety of feeds are
easier to domesticate.
3. Early Domestication
Domestication involves more than simply
taming. Animals are considered to be
domesticated when:
– they are kept for a distinct purpose
– humans control their breeding
– their survival depends on humans
– they develop traits that are not found in the
wild
4. Domestication
Domestication allowed humans to
• Contain animals with the right temperament
• Have a steady food supply
• Use animals for companionship, religious purposes and draft work
In return, the animals received protection and a constant
food supply.
Selective breeding occurred as humans got rid of animals
with undesirable traits, not allowing them to reproduce.
5. Which of these animals was
domesticated first?
List them in the order you think they were
domesticated on your notes page.
Cattle? Horses?
Goats? Chickens?
Pigs? Turkeys?
Sheep?
What’s your guess?
6. Sheep: Domesticated 11,000-15,000 years ago
• Domesticated in the mountains of Southeast Europe and
Central/Southwest Asia. These areas include the countries of:
Greece, Kazakhstan, Turkey, Hungary, Uzbekistan, Syria
Yugoslavia, Turkmenistan, Iraq , Romania, Tajikistan
Bulgaria, Afghanistan and Iran
• Favorable because of their wool and meat for which they are still
used and bred today.
• Because of selective breeding for traits and other results of
domestication, sheep are the only species of livestock that would
be unable to return to the wild.
7. Cattle: Domesticated 10,000-15,000 years ago
• Domesticated near the boundary of Europe and Asia and/or
Southwest Asia
• This area includes the countries of: Russia, Turkey, Ukraine, Syria,
Moldavia, Turkmenistan, Iran, Iraq
• In the beginning, cattle were used mainly for meat, milk and labor
but eventually were replaced by horses in most of the draft work.
8. Horses: Domesticated approx. 5,000 years ago
• Horses were domesticated in Eastern Europe
and Western Asia. This area includes the
countries of Mongolia and Siberia.
• Originally, horses were used for meat and milk,
but eventually became useful as pack and draft
animals.
9. Animal Domestication
Goats
• The goat was among the earliest animals to be
domesticated, around 6000 - 7000 B.C. in Western Asia.
• The goat could easily revert to its wild state.
Chickens
• Chickens were known in China more than 3,400 years
ago and also in Southeast Asia (China, Laos, Vietnam,
Cambodia, Thailand, Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines,
Burma)
Turkeys
• The turkey is the only North American domestic animal
and was domesticated in middle North America.

Food
• Mutton and chevon are eaten by more people than any
other meat
• Beef is eaten in larger quantities than any other meat.
• Certain religions restrict beef and pork consumption
– Hindus do not eat beef.
– Muslim, Hind, and Orthodox Jews do not eat pork
• Many people eat horsemeat
• Goats, ewes, cattle, mares, sows, llamas, camels,
reindeer and yaks provide milk and milk products.
13. Animal Contributions to Society
Clothing
• Wool, hair, hides (leather), and pelts have
commonly been used for clothing.
• Even today, in more than 100 countries,
ruminant fibers such as hair and wool are
used in the manufacture of clothing,
bedding, housing and carpets.
14. Animal Contributions to Society
Shelter
• Hair and hides provide material for shelter. For example,
hides are used in teepees, while hair is used in plaster
(horsehair plaster).
Tools
• Early man relied on bones and hides for tools.
Utensils
• Bladders, horns, catgut and dynamite are animal
products that are commonly used.
Personal Items
• Humans use animal products or by-products for jewelry
and perfume.
15. Animal Contributions to Society
Power
• Animals have always been important throughout history
for draft work, packing and transporting humans. In the
1920s, more than 25 million horses were used primarily for
draft purposes.
• Today, in developing countries, animals provide as much
as 99% of the power used in agriculture while 20% of the
world's populations depend on animals for moving goods.
– India has more than 200 million cattle and buffalo, but because
cattle are sacred in India, they are not slaughtered for meat. These
animals are used to provide power for field work.
16. Animal Contributions to
Society
War
• Animals were used in war for transportation and power
Religion
• Some societies worship animals.
Recreation
• Companionship and hobbies or sports such as horseback
riding
Health
• Laboratory animals are commonly used for research.
• Miniature pigs have been used in laboratory research
because they closely resemble humans in their pulmonary,
cardiac, dental and even pre-natal brain development.
• Cattle and sheep have been used to test artificial organs
before use in humans.
• Humans also use animal products and by-products in
pharmaceuticals.
