Pets, Animals and Humans

Pets and Animals have always played a very important role in progression of Human Race. Since the Stone Age man has been living very close to the rest of the animal kingdom. The fact that human being is not the only one to who this beautiful mother earth belongs to has made him encounter with animals in day to day life in many different ways. Animals play roles in human life such as food, transport, entertainment and as a friend too!

In today’s modern world Pets have become an integral part of human life. Since the last century, man has discovered many modern and friendly techniques to train animals to his use. Many also have trained wildest beasts from the dark jungles and brought them to the civilized world of human beings for many reasons like help animals to multiply, help them survive from being hunt, to train them to entertain a large mob of people and so on.

Apart from wild animals there are some who have always been friends to human race. Horses, Dogs, Cattle, sheep are like blessings to human race. There has been an intimate relationship between these races and humans setting a perfect 'give and take' or 'live and let live' kind of example.

Horses have always been used as a mode of transportation for humans. Dogs have protected valuables and human lives and at times have sacrificed themselves to protect their master. Cows, sheep have always provided the human race with their milk. In return, man has always cared for these pets, he has provided them shelter, food and nourishment.

In today's modern world humans are facing many problems in terms of their personal life, protecting homes and valuables, lonely old age, families being breaking into nuclear families etc. In many of these cases pets come to our rescue, like they have sworn not to let us down. In today's world people can not take their own child for granted but they can bet their remaining days on pets.

Pets like dogs are being trained to help old people to take a walk, get them mail, newspapers, guide them on roads etc. They are also being trained to take care of the little ones. Some breeds are experts in protecting our valuables. An ever growing demand of pets to protect us has transformed into a huge industry and contributes to the economy too. Growing demand for purest breed have made them as expensive as gold.

Cats may not be used in the same way but they could be very dear friends to the whole family. They may not add any value to your holdings but they are best to have them around when you need someone to hug you.

Man has discovered many ways to produce the best possible breed to cater his needs stated above. With the newest technology he has also been able to 'duplicate' an animal using a DNA. There are many institutions like World Wildlife to protect many rare species.

Let us all be very grateful to the animal kingdom for all the help they always have provided in developing us as a civilized species. Man would not be what he is today without these dear friend's help.
