Would you be willing to admit, in full or in part, that domestication is a lost science, and that humans cannot achieve it in the modern era? Why or why not?

>that domestication is a lost science
True.
humans cannot achieve it in the modern era?
Bullshit.
We don't domesticate things anymore because it's useless to do it, not because we can't.
>Hurrr, want a special snowflake pet, I'm too special to own a dog or a cat, durrr
no
I stopped seeing reddit everywhere when I got off that site anon
you should try it too
We do it to plants also. It only takes time. Incidentally the commies put really dumb people in charge of agriculture. They thought that if you cut all the leafs off of a plant the next generation would remember not to grow leafs or that if you kept planting crops further away they would learn to grow in different climates.

Domestication predated the scientific method by thousands years, so it was never a science.
All domesticable animals have already been domesticated, from dogs and cats to horses and camels and cattle and sheep and pigs and goats and chickens and ducks and buffalo and even falcons and (with extreme, ongoing cruelty) elephants.
What other animals do you think should or even could be domesticated? And for what purpose?
>falcons
>elephants
>domesticated
Those are tamed animals, retard. Taming =/= domestication.
We've tried domesticating them for centuries, nothing works. Alligators make fine pets though.
>get a bunch of animals
>kill the most aggressive ones
we're now in a new era where un-domestication is the name of the game
producing animals that appear domesticated, but quickly revert back to "humans are food" mode
thanks
Your bot is broken. Fucking fix it.
If by domestication you mean controlling the reproduction of animals in order to produce new desired varieties, then we still do that plenty.
Not a bot, he posts them manually. He's unironically worse than the lemur autist. At least lemur autist only spams threads that are about lemurs.
