New Research has determined that Wolves are considerably better imitators than dogs.......Although wolves and dogs are closely related, they show some striking differences........... Scientists have undertaken experiments that suggest that wolves observe one another more closely than dogs and so are better at learning from one another......... The scientists believe that cooperation among wolves is the basis of the understanding between dogs and humans.......Through their long association with us, dogs have lost the wolves ability to imitate each other and instead dogs have learned to accept humans as social partners and thus have adapted their social skills to include interactions with us, in the process losing the ability to learn by watching other dogs.-------Click on link below to read full story
