Definición

  • According to the Oxford English Dictionary (OED), the usage of wild, meaning “of an animal; living in a state of nature; not tame, not domesticated,” can be traced back to 725 c.e. By 1440 c.e., the word wildness, meaning “the state or character of being wild” or “undomesticated,” referred to a particular way of being—a category of behaviors and attributes, but not Kingdom or Phylum-specific ones.
