How did early humans decide what animals to domesticate?
Early humans only killed animals to eat. When they killed all of the animals, they would have to move to other places. They would start making small community's and eventually, when their towns became too large, it became too difficult to move. They had to find an easier way to get around. When they trapped their horse like animals, they decided not to kill them. They tried to train the animals to help them carry their belongings. When this proved successful, they moved on to larger animals like elephants. Soon they started to domesticate animals left and right. First they domesticated only useful animals. Then they would make pets out of some of them.
