It is not the way of the Wild to like movement. Part 1, Chapter 1, pg. The Wild 1 Two men, Bill and Henry , drive the sled towards its destination. It is howling. The two men realize that they are being chased by a pack of wolves .
Food is so scarce that the wolves are hunting men.
Bill and Henry pitch camp and build a fire. The wolves watch from just beyond the other side of the fire. Bill remarks to Henry that, while feeding the dogs, he noticed that there were seven instead of six. He had brought six fish, and one dog, One Ear , did not get a fish. There are tracks in the snow where the seventh dog ran back to the wolf pack.
