Examines how animals have influenced social and economic structures of past societies, with a focus on the advent of domestication. Explores the cultural and economic changes that domestication has had on human societies, as well as the behavioral, genetic, and morphological changes that this process had on once wild animals. Emphasizes the methods used to retrace human-animal interactions, drawing on cross-cultural examples from anthropology, ethnozoology, archaeology, history, and genetics. ### requirements text None ### credit offering ids None recorded. ### llm job id enrich-8b774950c2b6adfdc46d1b82 ### llm output id 9a8eff84b23e5714aaff684f9fdf66e4aa81b9d23866f42aca1058d9f1d228c4 ### llm model nvidia/Qwen3.6-35B-A3B-NVFP4 ### llm model revision 1355db6a052410cfd62085d94b58866fd0f2c3c5 ### llm task version 14 ### llm search status valid ### llm summary ANSCI 240 introduces human and animal relationships from prehistory to the present, focusing on domestication's impact on societies and animals. ### llm topics * Influence of animals on social and economic structures * Cultural and economic changes from domestication * Behavioral, genetic, and morphological changes in animals * Interdisciplinary perspectives from anthropology, archaeology, and genetics ### llm skills * Methods to retrace human-animal interactions ### llm assumed background None recorded. ### llm search phrases * human animal relationships prehistory * animal domestication history * anthropology archaeology genetics domestication * cross-cultural human animal interactions ### llm requirements status valid ### llm student summary status valid ### llm experience status insufficient\_evidence ### catalog variants None recorded. ### student summary #### context hash 0d365dfbf8012f9c7005bd8c4c7f69b6c4def55fb0ad9828e265312e6c109a79 #### course id ANSCI 240 #### current instructors None recorded. #### difficulty workload None recorded. #### errors None recorded. #### historical context None recorded. #### message No course-specific reviews available #### offered false #### profile hash 672f506f2fc2f46a071b9777f4a92cc197b2ccdeef25590e9285146d8c7e7f90 #### quick take None recorded. #### student experience None recorded. #### task hash 74fb0997943e888960bbc9e47db8c4fd12e4292d55c20509d8d89db6a9910f68 #### teaching history None recorded. #### term id 1272 #### term name 2026 Fall #### version 2 ### requirements #### nodes ```json [ { "children": [], "condition": "None", "course": null, "evidence": "None", "id": "source_requirements", "kind": "condition" } ] ``` #### notes * Display fallback using original requirements text; not an LLM-parsed rule. #### root source\_requirements #### status needs\_review ### instructors None recorded. ### offerings None recorded. ### sections None recorded. ### grade instructors None recorded. ### grades None recorded. ### statistics #### graded 0 #### counts * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 * 0 ### grade conflicts None recorded. ### evidence #### history * [/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/history/course\_0c0c0b4b9643c5881770b894-0.json](https://uwcourses.com/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/history/course_0c0c0b4b9643c5881770b894-0.json) #### traces * [/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/traces/course\_0c0c0b4b9643c5881770b894-0.json](https://uwcourses.com/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/traces/course_0c0c0b4b9643c5881770b894-0.json) #### results * [/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/results/course\_0c0c0b4b9643c5881770b894-0.json](https://uwcourses.com/data/e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349/results/course_0c0c0b4b9643c5881770b894-0.json) ### revision e243353dcb7d79b7247ced91d69443ef4c2a6349 ## instructor Trends None recorded. ## following None recorded.
