staff reporter

NEW YORK – Through a genetic study of modern and ancient sled dogs, an international team of researchers has found that the major ancestry of modern sled dogs traces back to Siberia, where sled dog-specific haplotypes that potentially relate to Arctic adaptation were established 9,500 years ago.
