The domestication of plants and animals was triggered by the climatic changes and environmental transformations that happened after the Last Glacial Maximum’s peak about 21 thousand years ago and which proceed to this modern day. These changes made getting food hard. The first domesticate was the wolf (Canis lupus) at least 15 thousand years ago. The Younger Dryas (about 12.9 to 11.7 thousand years BP) was a period of extreme cold and aridity that put stress on Homo sapiens to enhance their foraging approaches.
