 Wolves on the other hand

Now, I get a little thoughtful at that. Dogs are almost the same as wolves
when it comes to ways of hunting and ways of living. Their social breeding
system as well. Dogs kept by us are fed rather a lot of carbs and far too
little meat. They live long, breed well but are not as healthy as wild dogs
(overweight and diabetes). We could call them omnivores if we only look at
what we give them but that would not be correct in my opinion. It's what
they eat in a wild condition that is the correct way of eating.

 Could it be the same with us. Being truly tribal we would not be omnivores
but carnivores?
