If humans can evolve wolves into domesticated dogs of various appearances in 10,000 years, I wonder what nature might be capable of over billions of years this planet earth has been around.

When the wolf becomes a parakeet we can talk.

Your example is incorrect. Wolves (Canines) were adapted to our purposes into dogs (Canines).

We have not taken a bear and changed it into a non-bear, or taken wild goats and changed them into something not-goat.

Adaptation is real, evolution, not so much.
