Darwin Life and Dogs
Storyboard Text
- Good morning, Anne!
- Ruff! Why would anyone name a dog as handsome as me "Bob"?
- Hello, Father. Are you going on a walk with Bob?
- Yes! Do you want to join us?
- I can tell you the story of how dogs influenced my Theory of Evolution!
- Not THAT story again!
- Yes, of course! Let's go!
- I've always enjoyed having dogs, ever since I was young.
- Yes! That was my favorite sport. I used to do it a lot before I went to Galapagos.
- You used dogs when you went shooting birds, right?
- Seeing dogs' behavior and learning about how they bred was interesting to me.
- Look! Another dog is approaching Bob.
- SNIFF SNIFF
- SNIFF SNIFF
- Did you see that change in behavior? They began smelling each other!
- In my Theory of Evolution, I tried explaining the mechanisms for changes within populations, including behavioral changes.
- Related to your theory? Or related to love?
-
- Another interesting thing can be learned about domestic animals like Bob and his new female friend.
- This is something I wrote in my book "On the Origin of Species"...
- Evolution?
- Love? Who said anything about that? I meant about Evolution!
- "Our familiarity with the larger domestic animals tends, I think, to mislead us; we see no great destruction falling on them..."
- "...and we do not keep in mind that thousands are annually slaughtered for food, and that in a state of nature an equal number would have somehow to be disposed of."
- Slaughtered?
- This is part of the "Struggle for Existence", and it comes into play in my Theory of Evolution.
- Ultimately, things about my past like my trip to Galapagos and even dogs influenced my theory.
- Let's just go back home, Father!
- Is this goodbye?
- I'm sorry if that was a bit too much, Anne!
- THE END
