It's an animal that's domesticated. See the Tea room, where in fairness the discussion hasn't really got started. Mglovesfun (talk) 16:52, 16 November 2009 (UTC)

- In principle it's a SoP, but all translations are not SoP's. Deleting would put some pressure to the translations section of domesticated, which is pretty scant at the moment. Besides, "domesticated animal" is probably one of the basic concepts of all languages, as domesticating animals is one of the very reasons we have been able to create civilization. Third, we have a zillion of more useless SoP's, like soccer ball discussed a few lines below and no biggie above. --Hekaheka 10:08, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
Delete The overlong definition is incorrect because it is too restricted. E.g., domesticated animal could refer to a wild horse that's been broken or a tamed wolf, so “belonging to a species” is not necessarily correct. This demonstrates a problem with having a zillion or more useless SoP's – each one requires maintenance and potentially misleads. Follow the guidelines and zap 'em all. —Michael Z. 2010-03-22 16:46 z
- After reading the entry "domesticated" I withdraw my support from "domesticated animal". --Hekaheka 18:56, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
