How would Buck's relationship with John Thornton fit into a behavior pattern of an abused dog?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

If Thornton treated Buck abusively like the people who used the club on him, Buck won't obey and love Thornton like he does now, instead he wouldn't do anything for Thornton no matter what and maybe would treat him like the previous owners; Perrault and Francois.

No. Instead, Buck becomes a free dog and changes into a wolf.

In Call of the Wild, he was a tame dog that becomes wild. In White Fang, the dog was wild and became tame. You should read White Fang. It's a very good novel!

Why was the first chapter in The Call of the Wild called into the primitive?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Because one must first become primitive (throw away the excesses of modern-day life, revert to a more hunter-gatherer mentality) before one can become wild (utterly without reasoning other than survival instinct).

In The Call of the Wild what is meant by the phrase The domesticated generations fell from him?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The use of the phrase by author Jack London implies that animals can revert to their inherited instinctive responses rather than the influences that have changed their behavior (in this case, domestication as a sled dog). The sled dog Buck has to depend on his canine instincts rather than his learned behavior.

What was the ending of the story of Call of the wild by Jack London?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

The final chapter ends with John Thorton setting off with Buck to the east to discover a lost mine which supposedly will make one rich. They wander in the wilderness, hunting and fishing and living off the land, until they reach a shallow place in a valley full of gold. The men earn thousands of dollars a day panning for gold, and the dogs have nothing to do. Feeling left out, Buck dashes into the forest after hearing a call of the wild. He makes friends with a wolf, but can't decide whether his loyalty should saty with Thornton or the wolf. A devastating Indian attack kills everyone at Buck's camp including Thornton, and Buck is the only one who survives. He once again hears the call of the wild and goes off because his ties to Thornton were broken by death. Buck in the end joins the wolf pack and lives his life in the wilderness.
