-The climatic changes caused the animals to migrate further from their previous locations leading man to fund an alternative.
-Man and other predatory animals competed for the same prey leading to decrease in number of animals thus domestication.
-Overhunting by man depleted the stock of animals that man relied on for food.
-Natural disasters such as fires and floods would kill the animals and caused survivors to move far.
-Hunting and gathering had become insecure source of food as man would sometimes not get enough food.
-Hunting as well as gathering would sometimes be hindered by unfavorable weather conditions . snow, rain and therefore man would not go for hunting and get food.
-Hunting and gathering was tiring and strenuous due to constant movement that was required as man followed migrating animals.
