Why is selective breeding not caused by natural selection?

Selective breeding is not caused by natural selection because it is controlled by humans, who choose which organisms to breed based on specific traits they want to pass on. In natural selection, the environment determines which traits are advantageous for survival and reproduction, leading to the evolution of species over time. Selective breeding, on the other hand, is a human-driven process aimed at producing desired characteristics in organisms for human benefit.
