>> If humans can evolve wolves into domesticated dogs of various appearances in 10,000 years<<

When the wolf becomes a parakeet we can talk.

That is the most illogical argument I have heard. Obviously you did not have the chance to study and read books on evolution. Evolution is not a magic show. It happens in an orderly fashion. Species which evolove from another species are closely related genetically and appearance to the prior species. The reason they evolve is to adapt to changing conditions in their environment. A wolf can evolve into a German shepherd dog due to change in survival conditions. The change is subtle and not drastic. We have a Lhasa Apso dog which weighs only 10 lbs. But it still has a lot of characteristics of a wolf such as bonding with its pack (which are us, people in the family), extremely similar skeletal structure, subservience to the Alpha male (me) in the pack, undying loyalty to the pack, and same genetically as wolves. Did yo know that Chimps and humans have 99.5%+ similar genes? But not so with parakeets.

If you dissect and study the soft tissue anatomy of a parakeet, you can recognize most of the soft tissue anatomy of a wolf.

If you study the skeleatal anatomy of a parakeet, you have essentially learned the skeletal anatomy of a wolf.

Compared to, say, a crab or a snail or clam, a parakeet and a wolf are almost the same animal with only minor changes.
