the bare footprints of an 8- to 10-year-old torch-bearing boy left in the mud of a back chamber some 26,000 years ago—and, alongside one of them, the paw print of his traveling companion, variously identified as a wolf or a large dog.

If they could follow the tracks they may discover that it wasn't such a Norman Rockwell painting they're painting here.

I think they’re drawing a lot of conclusions from finding two different kinds of footprints at the same place - all that means is that a boy was once in that cave, and a dog/wolf was once in that cave, but not necessarily at the same time. However, I don’t argue with the idea that humans and dogs have been cooperating for ages, each influencing the other for the better. There are several very interesting documentaries on available on Netflix that explore the relationship between humans and dogs.

I watched a Nat Geo program last week on just this premise. This article could have been the script outline. It was a good program.

The paw prints with the boys’ have been noted for years. It’s also been noted that wolves don’t go deep into caves but dogs will follow people into them.

I think it’s probable that the prints are of a dog that followed a boy.
