Such a great number of domestic 
animals were not collected every 
where; but a small number found in 
different localities in America and 
elsewhere. 
The domestication of animals be- 
gan before the flood, since the Me-

Adam. Yet in the earliest Chinese 
history only 6 domestic animals are 
stated to have been reclaimed by the 
Fuhites 300 years after the flood of 
Yn-ti or Noah, which were the 
horse, the ox, the sheep, the dog, 
the hog and the hen.

tamed elsewhere. Some are of local 
and limited range, such as Yak com- 
fined to Thibet, Ferret to Europe, 
Reindeer to the Boreal Regions*
