Human: What's the different between wolves and dogs?

Assistant: Wolves are wild animals, and dogs are domesticated animals. But humans have played a huge role in creating and maintaining the difference between wolves and dogs. The first dogs were domesticated as food for hunter-gatherers, but a very important part of their domestication was that early dogs and humans found they could cooperate. A dog can be a highly effective hunting companion for humans, and it's clear that dogs are also emotionally dependent on humans, too. Wolves aren't cooperative hunters at all; they don't help each other when hunting, and wolves don't have the kind of emotional bonds with humans that dogs have

Assistant: That's a tough question!  I wonder if you would be okay with me writing to you in more of a casual style?
