Re: article: *lots of change in Animal Behavior* in recent decades
I think it is highly doubtful that wolves have evolved in the past 16000 years since dogs became domesticated, and I've yet to read of anyone finding any change in wolves in that short period.

The most recent research on the subject not only traces the evolution of teh dog from wolves to 16K but it places that event taking place South of the Yangtze river. [doi:10.1093/molbev/msp195 ]
