Did ancient humans bring wolves across the sea? Scientists discover 5,000-year-old remains on this remote island

A remarkable archaeological discovery on a remote island in Sweden is giving researchers a fresh look at the ancient relationship between humans and wolves. The remains of two prehistoric wolves, dating back between 3,000 and 5,000 years, have been found in a cave on an island that was never connected to the mainland. The surprising find has led scientists to explore whether humans may have transported the animals by boat and helped sustain them.
