Was the very first animal to get domesticated a dog or a wolf

..of several species,including bovines.......
I put up a question asking what the very first animal to get domesticated was and the answers that I got were dogs, wolves, and moo moos (cows). Please answer this question!

-
Well, since domestic dogs were bred down from selectively breeding (relitively) domesticated wolves, the answer would be wolves.

Domestic dogs you see today didn't exist until wolves were domesticated.

-
The wolf is the wild ancestor of the domestic dog and could have been domesticated as long as 12000 years ago making it the first domesticated animal if the dates are correct.

Both sheep and goats were domesticated at least 9000 years ago, long before cattle.

-
There were no dogs before wolfs got domesticated (excluding wild ones).

Wolfs got domesticated and than people bred them selectively, and, in the end, we have dozens of dogs who look nothing like wolfs.

-
Wolves are NOT a domestic species!
"Cow" only means FEMALE....of several species,including bovines.
