The recent pet boom
2018.09.04
These days keeping pets is very popular. But when did it begin
for men to live with other animals? Let’s see it.
In primitive ages, when human beings weren’t so strong, they
were always afraid of predators. In due course human beings came
to live with wolves because the interests of both sides coincided.
Human beings got protection from wolves. Wolves got food from men.
Dogs as we know today are believed to be descendants of these
wolves.
These days there are more and more people who need pets as
objectives of warmth and love. Single people,couples without kids and
old people who live lonely especially need them. People definitely
need contact of hearts. Pets respond to owners’love and care.
Moreover we learn something from taking care of pets. Children
especially seem to be affected in a positive way. They can learn
consideration and sympathy toward something in a weak position.
When pets die, grieving children might learn that there are sad
things besides happy things in lives. They face it.In this process
they may learn to appreciate their being alive and try to live as
hard as they can.
