Friendly foxes show brain changes from domestication, Cornell study finds
Original: From wild to mild: Friendly foxes show changes in brain region
Cornell University researchers report that foxes bred for friendliness show measurable changes in a specific brain region compared with wild foxes. The findings, part of the long-running fox domestication research, offer new insight into how tameness and social behaviour reshape the brain, and the study is drawing attention for what it suggests about the biology of domestication.
Why now: A new Cornell study on brain changes in domesticated foxes has just been published and is being widely shared.
