In class today we continued watching the documentary "Guns, Germs, and Steel." New Guinea faced a lot of disadvantages.The only animal that was able to be domesticated is the pigs and they just came to the area a couple thousands of years ago, while they live there for about thirteen thousand years. It's not like there are a lot of animals at are able to be domesticated that are over one hundred pounds. Only fourteen animals out of 40,000 animals that are over one hundred pounds can be domesticated. All thirteen of the species started living in the Europe, and Asia. Domestication and certain types of food held them back from advancing in technology. We got into a discussion that what if they are fine with the life they are living now.
