					<description><![CDATA[Years ago I proposed a theory (not anywhere in print, just in seminars and talks) that went roughly like this. Humans hunt. Dogs hunt. Prey animals get hunted. Each species (or set of species) has a number of characteristics such as the ability to stalk, track, kill, run away, form herds, etc. Now imagine a &#8230; <a href="https://gregladen.com/blog/2015/11/13/how-dogs-won-the-world/" class="more-link">Continue reading <span class="screen-reader-text">How Dogs Won The World</span> <span class="meta-nav">&#8594;</span></a>]]></description>

The vast majority of the variation we seen in stature (height) among humans is not genetic.

					<description><![CDATA[A recent paper provides the groundwork to establish a way for exercise to diminish appetite. Or, more likely, for sedentary behavior to increase appetite. It is well known that exercise burns calories. Personally, I think that&#8217;s overrated: Strength building raises your metabolic demand, and THAT burns calories.
