I'm unaware of any animals which cannot be selectively bred. If offspring are produced through the mating of male and female of the species, you should be able to select for the most desirable traits in both parents. This assumes, of course, that the breeding stock are already in captivity.

What process do humans use to influence the traits of a species?
selective breeding; been going on for thousands of years. genetic engineering; been going on for decades.
How has selective breeding been helpful to your current way of life?
Absalutly no way at ALL!
Can a quagga be recreated?
Yes. This has almost been done, in fact, say some. A breeding-back programme has commenced, through selective breeding of the southern Plains Zebras.
How has selective breeding been used on humans beings?
it is useful to humans because if they are looking into raising a foal, to grow up to be a great race horse they would want the parents to be healthy and quite fit. Also if they wanted to raise it to be a jumping horse, they would have to mate a healthy and muscular mare with a healthy and muscular stud. Hope that helps with your question? x
