    Additionally, the moon is described as an “orange disk” (Roberts 19) whose rays lit the ravine “strangely”(Robert 19). The mention of the darkness and the strange moonlight create a distinct first impression of what is to come. For example, the child’s strife, the battle of man versus beast, and the “rapidly decaying” bodies of the panther cubs. The tone may be foreboding in terms of these events. Perhaps the darkness and the moonlight may connect yet again to Darwin (his connection between animal and human) in the sense that there is a sense of mourning for the cubs (and even the adult panthers). The reader may emotionally connect with the weeping child, but there is no denying that Robert’s provides for the reader a sense of mourning for the panthers and the decaying cubs. As discussed, man is simply a more cunning animal and so, there is a darkness and a mourning for the animal as well as the…

When Claudette gets anxious, there were numerous times when she turns to wolf behavior for comfort. She narrows her eyes at Kyle and flattens her ears, (Russell 242) and when the time comes to do Sausalito, Claudette panics and can only remember how to the “pump and pump” (Russell, 243). Claudette advances through the stages as necessary, but in desperate times she forgets everything the nuns have taught her.…

    The Chosen Wolf, Adonis, stood overlooking the city as the brisk wind struck him in the face. The snow was so freezing that it felt like there were needles puncturing him with every step. He could see his breath in the chilly air around him. This was very outlandish to him, as he had come from a different world. He was from the planet of Takondwa.

    One of the best animals he used was a wolf. A wolf can be described as a wild carnivorous mammal of the dog family, living and hunting in packs.

The wolves come in town preying on people that they fell that are lesser than them. They think they run everything. These wolves run in packs.

    “Wolves are the dogs that stayed behind.” The world is a cruel place. A thing that can be treasured in one instance can be a threat in the next. For many people, we stare at the natural world and see its rugged beauty and wish that we could captivate it for ourselves. The case is no different for our modern dogs. Bred from the “empty canvas” of a wolf, we’ve modified, altered, formed, transformed, reformed, and remodified wolves to be one of the closest companions we have still today: dogs. But through all of our perfecting and reshaping that we’ve done to our best friends’ closest ancestors, wolves have prevailed, echoing their famous legacy still throughout the world. Wolves, now in danger of extinction, are one of the greatest controversies…

    Change is inevitable and there must be adaptions to your inner self to adjust with the environment or risk failing at survival in a modern or primitive state. Charles Darwin said , “It is not the strongest or the most intelligent who will survive but those who can best manage change.” This idea is illuminated throughout Jack London’s The Call of the Wild. The novella The Call of the Wild shows the development of Buck from a domesticated household dog to an alpha leader of a pack who survives in the savage wild without the help of a human. Buck adapted from a domestic dog to a wolf like beast living in Alaska where the winters are brutal and the summers leave a wolf like beast vulnerable although he was the inferior dog and not the most intelligent.…

In vague ways, he remembered back to the youth of the breed, to the time the wild dogs ranged in packs through the primeval forest and killed their meat as they ran it down. …Thus, as token of what a puppet thing life is, the ancient song surged through him and he came into his own again” (18).…
