Earth has never experienced anything like us: a single species dominating and transforming the planet. Biologist Shane Campbell-Staton travels the globe to explore our impact. Because while we may tell ourselves what it means to be human, the clearest vision of who we are emerges from what we do. In that way, Human Footprint tackles the biggest story of all – the story of who we really are. Episode 3: We call them man’s best friend. But there’s more to our ancient alliance than friendship. Humans have transformed dogs from their wolf ancestors into a dazzling array of breeds, from beautiful to bizarre. And just as we’ve left our human footprint on dogs, they’ve left their pawprint on us - and the world we both share.
