Eles são companheiros leais, amorosos e devotados a uma relação que, em muitos casos, é pra vida toda. Os cães são os animais de estimação mais populares do planeta, presentes em quase todas as sociedades modernas e que nos acompanham desde a pré-história.
Mas como esses animais se tornaram o que eles são hoje? De onde vieram? Por que se tornaram parceiros tão próximos dos seres humanos?
Junte-se à alcateia no canal PAPO DE PRIMATA e conheça a incrível jornada evolutiva de animais selvagens que acabaram se tornando nossos melhores amigos!
