Why Dogs Bury Their Favorite Bones
You may find it crazy that your dog buries his favorite bone or chew toy, only to dig it up a day or two later, but there is actually a reason behind it -it is simply in their nature. For thousands of years, dogs have buried their bones. The practice itself started long before dogs were even pets when they had to bury bones to survive.
When dogs lived in the wild, sometimes food was scarce. If they were able to find food, dogs became very protective of it. Sometimes they would have more bones than they could eat for one meal. To keep other dogs and animals from stealing their bones, dogs would bury them in the ground. When it was time for the next meal, they would dig up their bones and enjoy them again. This would continue until the bones were gone.
Even though most dogs have plenty of food to eat today, their instincts still tell them to bury their bones and favorite toys. They do this to keep other dogs and animals from stealing them, just like their ancestors did. Some dogs keep at least two bones buried at once. When they want to dig up one, they will bury one more. This may leave a backyard full of holes and bones.
How do dogs decide where to bury their bones? A dog cannot bury a bone just anywhere. He must first find the perfect spot. This involves using his nose to find a spot that is free from other dogs and animals. Often it is near a tree or a large rock, but it could be anywhere in the yard. Once the dog finds the perfect spot, he uses his front paws to dig a hole, drops the bone in and covers up the hole to protect his treasure.
1. Dogs bury their favorite bones or chew toys by nature.

【文章大意】为什么狗会埋葬它们最喜欢的骨头
你可能会觉得你的狗把他最喜欢的骨头或咀嚼玩具埋起来，一两天后才把它挖出来，这很疯狂，但这背后其实是有原因的——这只是它们的天性。几千年来，狗把自己的骨头埋起来。这种做法早在狗成为宠物之前就开始了，当时它们必须埋葬骨头才能生存。
当狗生活在野外时，有时食物匮乏。如果它们能找到食物，狗就会非常保护它。有时它们的骨头多得一顿吃不完。为了防止其他狗和动物偷走它们的骨头，狗会把它们埋在地下。到了下一顿饭的时间，他们会把骨头挖出来，再次享用。这种情况会一直持续到骨头消失为止。
即使大多数狗今天有足够的食物吃，他们的本能仍然告诉他们埋葬自己的骨头和喜欢的玩具。它们这样做是为了防止其他狗和动物偷走它们，就像它们的祖先一样。有些狗至少同时埋两根骨头。当他们想挖一个的时候，他们会再埋一个。这可能会留下一个满是洞和骨头的后院。
狗是如何决定把自己的骨头埋在哪里的?狗不能随便把骨头埋在任何地方。他必须先找到最佳地点。这包括用他的鼻子找到一个没有其他狗和动物的地方。它通常在一棵树或一块大石头附近，但也可能在院子里的任何地方。一旦狗狗找到了一个完美的地方，它就会用前爪挖一个洞，把骨头扔进去，然后把洞盖起来，以保护它的宝藏。
