“Baelaev’s team tested hundreds of foxes and selected the top 10% tamest individuals for breeding…researchers found that after only about six generations, many of the focus would like the scientists hands, allow themselves to be picked up and petted… Some of them also showed traits from the domestication syndrome and started to look different from their wild relatives… they had less stress hormones and had increased serotonin (which makes you happy).”
