Don't get us wrong, we love dogs. And horses, horses are great. Actually, since they basically occupy the middle of that Venn diagram, it's possible we love greyhounds most of all. But that's not the point - the point is, what if humans hadn't been able to base their early civilisation around the domestication of such familiar species, and had to branch (and trunk, and root, and tunnel and river) out instead?
Picture a bucolic farmyard scene. Under a blue sky, amid rolling hills, sheep graze peacefully like earthbound clouds. But what's that bounding towards them over the windswept meadow? A sheepdog? No. As it draws nearer you make out the roiling, tumbling form of a ball made of a million giant ants. And they want to help.
