The dog experiment

Dog experiment

WALT:write a current event


How did the scientist conduct this experiment?


The scientist conducted this experiment with dogs by showing them different pictures of different facial reactions of humans.


Why did they show the dogs only particular face?


So the dogs could recognize humans facial expression.


What was the reason for showing the dogs left side of the picture instead of the right?


Because the scientist think that the face on the right makes them retreat, and on the left side they do not retreat.


Why did the dogs with male owners have a harder time reading their expression? Because of their owners gender.


What are the scientists planning to do next?
They are going to use it on other animals like pigs, cats and hand raised wolves.
