I agree; to a point.  Of all the organisms out there, we have only 
"domesticated" a handful.  In other words we have chosen ones that to a 
large extent were pre-adapted to suit our requirements.  And then tried 
a bit of fine tuning.

Thousands of bee spp out there, only one or two  that are really useful 
for our purposes.
