Call Of The Wild
Evolution, it’s a very interesting topic. Buck (the main character in “The Call of the Wild”) went through evolution in the book. Evolution is the change from one thing to another. Buck has been on a journey of evolution. He has seen his primordial brothers.
From the time Buck was dog napped, he has turned fierce and savage. He has learned how to keep warm while sleeping by digging under the snow and sleeping in that hole. He has learned not to fall in a fight or the dogs will pounce on you and shred you to pieces. Buck has killed another dog in rage and competition for leader. Buck has gotten calls (which are wolf howls) from his primordial brothers and runs to the wild and plays with a lone timber wolf. He also has dreams of a primordial man telling Buck to join the wild and hunt for food. He returns home and finds the camp killed by Yeehat Indians, so he kills some Indians, and with no were to go, joins a wolf pack and becomes leader.
So you can see Buck has changed from a civilized home dog to a wild vicious wolf pack leader through out the book. He has mastered the ways of the wild and knows how to survive. For example he can now hunt his own food for survival. He can also stay warm while sleeping. Both these examples show that Buck can survive in the wild. He has gone through the process of evolution.
