Excerpt from Man's Feelings Toward Animals and Their Uses: A Source Book of Literature Citations and Animal Welfare Organization Data
The story of man's use of other animals to satisfy human wants is as old as the saga of man. Through archaeological investigation prehistorians have traced early man's progression from carrion scavenger to hunter to domesticator. Anthropological study has revealed that this progression resulted in the birth of rituals, celebrations, art forms expressions of human emotions representing primitive man's recognition of the pragmatic and aesthetic values of animals.
