Do you think they could be domesticated?

A cursory web search with the keyword phrase "domesticating wild animals" turns up more negative opinions in the results than optimistic ones.

Perhaps over considerable time with selective breeding something could be accomplished, but then the danger would be of breeding out the features that we find desirable in the animal.  Although I generally dislike citing Wikipedia, this page provides a bit of an overview of the concept of domestication.

Agreed...a magnificent testament to the glory of Nature.
