Neat ~ South America was very hard hit by hanta virus all through the 1500s. The "village dogs" must have been devastated by the loss of the "village".

People living amidst social destruction probably turned to eating off the dogs first.

An on a related topic, something is driving primative villagers out of the jungle in Amazon Peru. Wonder if they have dogs? I have heard that the Mexican Hairless was bred that way for eating purposes, and my husband reported dog eating as common in Korea at the time of Korean War.
