Archeology Southwest article: More than a Pet: Exploring Canine Cultural Histories in North America, "Throw a stick for a dog, & chances are the dog will excitedly wag its tail, charge off at a gallop, & return with the stick in its mouth. Throw a stick for a wolf, & it will look at you quizzically before trotting off to do wolf things. How the latter ever became the former is a subject of much contemplation."

Hm, wolf things? 🤔
