You are saying wolves changed into domesticated dogs so therefore apes and people evolved from a common ansector. You are taking something that is observed and extrapolating it to something that isn’t observed. IOW, you are comparing apples to oranges as it were. Again you are confusing micro and macro.

Wolves, coyotes, and domesticated dogs have common anscestors, just like apes and humans do.

Man was the selective pressure for the wolf/coyote/dog lineage. Starving wolves overcame their fear of man, and accepted food from them.,eventually becoming tame. Then man bred the ones with traits they wanted. Most dog breeds are from the last 500 years or so.
Coyotes probably evolved from wolves without man’s intervention.

What is so hard in understanding that?

Are you denying that domestic dogs (canis lupus familiaris) is not a separate species and did not descend from the wolf (canis lupus)?

As other have said. What is the stop button between micro and macro? Maybe it looks like the “easy” button from Staples?

THERE IS NONE. There is evolution. Over a short time, small traits may be changed, these accumulate and over a long time, a new species arises.

Creationists use more twists of logic than any democrat.
