TIES Workshop Part 1

[@diruhater]

Thank you for everything you do for people and for science

[@503unavailable]

would't have thought that this video makes me want to have a tame fox as a pet. My gosh they were adorable

[@StudioArrayMusic]

Excellent! Thanks for sharing.

[@amisfitpuivk]

they need to mix the docile and angry foxes in their cage orders I think. The foxes might be learning their behavior from their neighbors. Throw a few nice foxes in the angry section to see if they too become angry. I would hope they've done this

[@TonecrafteLuthiery]

I'm interested to know whether the chain of aggressive behavior could be counteracted by interbreeding a series of generations, rather than just one. Much like the case of the tame foxes, it seems it might take several generations to notice significant results. It doesn't surprise me that a tame mother would have no effect on a particularly aggressive fox. But perhaps the results would be different in a fox with a neutral aggressive level. We know that mammals are nurtured by their parents, like bears teaching their cubs how to fish. I think pairing a tame cub with an aggressive mother in more natural conditions, and following up with blood tests for levels of stress hormones in the blood would really shed some light on the debate between learned behavior and genetically inherited behavior.

I'm soo frustrated that I can't buy some of your books in Poland :/

[@NoWay1969]

Thomas Henry Huxley was called Darwin's Bulldog, although it would fit with J.B.S. Haldane who was also a vociferous advocate for Darwin's theory. The thing suggested by the fox research, to me at least, is how quickly we could move humanity away from violent behavior if we focused on that. When the foxes are in an environment where aggression isn't rewarded, it goes begins to disappear.

[@stelamo]

Its nothing like that , there breading the Down syndrome in to them ..

[@zenman5910]

I have seen this in action on a workcamp in the arctic where people would feed both red and arctic foxes, they were friendly as puppies.

[@NoWay1969]

zenman5910 The foxes had just become more domesticated due to contact with humans?

[@stelamo]

No Way no no no ... there in cages hundreds of cages, there only contact with humans are 3 seconds a day when they get food ..

[@stelamo]

No Way look at this kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZpupeIGHiMiFhLs

[@m.shyamganeesh7421]

What has the colour change got to do with tameabilty?

[@seanmurphy1984]

these comments by these children on here are the most ridiculous things I have ever heard. thank the great flying spaghetti monster that knowledge is power, not ignorance. if ignorance was power these guys would have an unquestionable monopoly

[@George4943]

Evolution is driven by Environmental Selection. That environment may be slow to change as in climate change, continental drift, and precession, or fast to change, as in tornados, floods, tsunamis, hurricanes, volcanoes, meteorites, and this new creature -- humanity -- that spread itself everywhere is changing environments all over. Humankind plays favorites. Changes environments.

[@crazykindor6439]

The culture is a complex natural (artificial) selection field. Humankind changes environments. Phisically and culturally.

[@m.shyamganeesh7421]

one small question about this tameabilty gene why are orphaned tiger,lion & near cubs are raised as tame adults but fox puppies of aggressive one raised by the tame mom is not less aggressive is that bcoz it's not handraised by humans please answer ?

[@celdatadroiddroidy2961]

the sound went tin can mode... what happened to the vocal track?

[@yellowmaskdude553]

[@xochitllee24]

Time 9:11. JBS Haldane followed in the footsteps of TH Huxley as an avid Darwin defender, however Huxley coined the term "Darwin's Bulldog" for himself....so...Haldane isn't really known as Darwin's bulldog. I guess it's fair to say that he was one of Darwin's bulldogs, but not the 'bulldog'. Just saying. Good quote though.

[@Oreopagus]

Edward Blyth, English chemist/zoologist (and creationist), wrote his first of three major articles on natural selection in The Magazine of Natural History, 24 years before Darwin's "Origin of Species" was published. Why then do evolutionists think of natural selection as Darwin's idea? Blyth didn't attribute God-like qualities to natural selection, as some evolutionists do today. At least some are willing to admit: "Natural selection can only act on those biologic properties that already exist; it cannot create properties in order to meet adaptational needs." Noble, et al., Parasitology, 6th ed. (Lea & Febiger, 1989), p. 516.

Lucky we have sexual reproduction, genetic drift, mutation, viruses, duplication, sexual selection, copying errors etc.. then!! increased genetic variety in a population (Lenski 1995; Lenski et al. 1991) increased genetic material (Alves et al. 2001; Brown et al. 1998; Hughes and Friedman 2003; Lynch and Conery 2000; Ohta 2003)

[@petmo78]

all this shit is in the book "Ansestors Tale"

[@HardKore5250]

What is it about?

[@unicyclist97]

David Heller It's a narrative following evolution back through time and stopping at the intersections between us and certain animals. It's a great storytelling approach and full of fascinating facts.

[@petergriffin3737]

A question for y'all. WHY IS THERE HAIR AROUND MY ANUSSSS???!!!!!

[@formset]

Because God designed it so-LOL ...

[@Antonypacman]

God in 2016 LOL

[@pamela74h]

@@formset that really answer the reason why... it would have to be what's its purpose and that would be the reason why. And some things are left over from Evolution and are of no use at all today

[@HConstantine]

maybe it would have been better to hire a science teacher who understood geology. Maybe the best practice would be to require science teachers to have an MA in a scientific discipline instead of a lot of useless coursework in "education."

[@Jimpozcan]

Yep
