A book about the extraordinary bond between humans and animals, which is everlasting — animals as hard workers, friends, and faithful companions. They have been with us since time immemorial. Some are close to us, others we treat with great respect. And they help us: dogs as guides, elephants as warriors, cats as gods, cheetahs as hunters, pigeons as postmen, horses as therapists, dolphins as rescuers, pigs as truffle hunters, geese as guards, camels as racers, and cows as carriers. To find out more, open this book, feast your eyes on its pictures and read the stories about how wild animals became helpers and true friends of humans.
Dogs It barks, yaps, nuzzles, wags its tail when happy, cuddles and shows love by licking its master or mistress all over with its pink, wet tongue. Who do we mean?Why, the dog of course! For us people, dogs make faithful, lifelong friends. Indeed, the first tamed wolves walked at the side of prehistoric hunters 35,000 years ago.
