I think this is something pet owners have understood for a long time, I know I have for at least 50 years. It's nice to see academia finally waking up.

Data, data, we have to have more data. That's what biologists were thinking when they went out and shot everything in sight. The trouble was they were destroying the most valuable data which was in the animals heads; their behavior. Something the primitive societies understood very well, so in effect the scientists were the illiterates and remain so today in their failure to draw conclusions from the mountains of data.

I got a simple answer . Read the first few chapters of Genesis . The connection started with Adam .

Man all those years of research and paper writing and it was always right there ;) .

No it was not right there. What Genesis did was institutionalize ignorance of animals, the Victorian clap trap I grew up with.
