Shownotes

Thousands of years ago, humans began forming a relationship with an animal that would become one of history's most important livestock species.

It could survive in harsh environments, eat vegetation that other animals avoided, and provide humans with food and valuable materials.

Over thousands of years, this animal spread around the world, adapting to new environments and developing hundreds of distinct breeds.
