dc.description | Since the domestication process in the Neolithic Age, livestock has spread all over the world as a result of human migration or interchanges among neighbouring human populations. As they reached different places they slowly adapted to the specific environmental conditions of the area and to the ‘cultural’ preferences of their new herdsmen, giving rise to the livestock’s genetic diversity. In the old days, domestic animals were multifunctional; they were used for draught work, clothes, manure, fuel and food. It was not until 18th century in Europe when these differences between animals within the same species acquired a name, and were called ‘breeds’. | - |
