The human animals bond can occur between people and domestic or wild animals; be it a cat as a pet or birds outside one's window. The phrase “Human-Animal Bond” also known as HAB began to emerge as terminology in the late 1970s and early 1980s. Research into the nature and merit of the human–animal bond began in the late 18th century when, in York, England, the Society of freinds established. The retreat to provide humane treatment for the mentally ill. By having patients care for the many farm animals on the estate, society officials theorized that the combination of animal contact plus productive work would facilitate the patients' rehabilitation. In the 1870s in Paris, a French surgeon had patients with neurological disorders ride horses. The patients were found to have improved their motor control and balance and were less likely to suffer bouts of depression.
A case of the Human-Animal Bond can be seen amid World War I on the Western Front with steeds. The utilization of this creature was far reaching as more than 24,000 steeds and donkeys were utilized as a part of the Canadian Expeditionary Force in World War I. The steed association can be seen as stallions were utilized to draw wagons for their drivers, as individual transport mounts for officers, and patients for veterinarians. While examining the human-creature bond there is a peril of humanoid attribution and projections of human qualities.
