Esta página ofrece una lista de animales domésticos , [1] también incluye una lista de animales que están o pueden estar actualmente en proceso de domesticación y animales que tienen una relación extensa con los humanos más allá de la simple depredación. Esto incluye especies que son semi-domesticadas, no domesticadas pero criadas en cautiverio a escala comercial, o comúnmente capturadas en el medio silvestre, al menos ocasionalmente criadas en cautiverio, y domesticadas . Para ser consideradas completamente domesticadas, la mayoría de las especies han pasado por importantes procesos genéticos , de comportamiento y morfológicos.cambios con respecto a sus ancestros salvajes, mientras que otros han cambiado muy poco con respecto a sus ancestros salvajes a pesar de cientos o miles de años de potencial reproducción selectiva . Varios factores determinan la rapidez con la que pueden ocurrir cambios en una especie, pero no siempre existe el deseo de mejorar una especie a partir de su forma salvaje. La domesticación es un proceso gradual, por lo que no hay un momento preciso en la historia de una especie determinada en el que pueda considerarse que se ha domesticado por completo.
La arqueozoología ha identificado tres clases de animales domesticados:

Debido a los contornos algo poco claros de lo que constituye precisamente la domesticación , hay algunas especies que pueden o no estar completamente domesticadas. También hay algunas especies que son ampliamente utilizadas o mantenidas como mascotas por los humanos, pero que no se alteran significativamente de los animales de tipo salvaje. La mayoría de los animales en esta segunda tabla están al menos algo alterados de los animales de tipo salvaje debido a sus extensas interacciones con los humanos, aunque no hasta el punto de que se consideren formas distintas (por lo tanto, no se observan ancestros salvajes separados). Muchos de ellos no pueden ser liberados en la naturaleza o dependen de alguna manera de los humanos.
