Natural Selection and Selective Breeding

Natural Selection is allowing the natural environment to select traits.   Natural selection happens for in wild animals such as deer, moose, wolves,and coyotes.

Artificial Selection is when select animals with more desirable traits to breed together.  Artificial selection is used with animals that we want  to have a desired trait such as more milk production in dairy cows or more lean meat on beef cows.
