Humans were lucky that it worked out that bigger dogs generally are less mean.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

Like... wolves?
Most wolves are actually terrified of humans and would probably run away if they see you. You should still be careful in areas with wolves though.
Do you know if that's a modern change or if it's always been the case?
I don't know. I heard it in a documentary about coyotes a few years ago.
Maybe, but coyotes are not wolves.
The wolf fact was in the documentary to compare the two. When a coyote and wolf breed, the offspring is bigger than a typical coyote and not as afraid of humans as a typical wolf.
