But still your dog doesn't really want to eat the bugs, it's just there's no bowl of steak next to it

- regularfry 9mo agoHave you met dogs?
- andrewflnr 9mo agoWe had a dog who would pull watermelon rinds out of the compost pile to eat. We gave her nice bones, but it's not enough. Nothing is enough. All is food and food is all.
- xvilka 9mo agoHow mighty wolves have fallen...
- AngryData 9mo agoHow can you know that? Dogs were domesticated on being fed scraps to start with and came from wolves which are also natural scavengers and eat all sorts of nasty (to us) things. Ive seen many dogs happily gobble up insects, even stink bugs. Dogs don't even know what their food is made out of 95% of the time these days so im not sure anybody can claim they simply don't like eating insect food without some kind of study to back it up.
- aguacaterojo 9mo agoI was being a little facetious. Yes they probably "like" processed insect food designed for them, but for the average dog, I'm still betting on the steak. Wolves scavenge opportunistically, but they are first apex predators. Their primary food drive is to hunt in packs for large game and gorge. Dogs are not so far removed.
