The men began making a lot of money panning for gold. Buck had nothing to do so he wandered. One night he began to feel the yearnings of the wild dogs. Buck wandered off with a timber wolf. After a while he missed John Thornton and returned to camp. He stayed by John's side for a while, but soon began to wander from camp again.

Then he found Hans lying face-down covered with arrows. buck found the Yeehats dancing in the wreckage of the mining camp. Buck charged them, cutting their throats with his fangs. The Indians ran. Buck then found John dead. buck was deeply upset by the death of his master. He also felt pride at having killed the Yeehats.

11 Summary After this incident Buck was never afraid of men unless they carried weapons. He heard the call of the wolves again. Buck joined the wolf pack. One wolf tried to bite Buck's neck. Buck was able to break the wolf's neck. Three others also attacked. Buck beat them as well. After half an hour all the wolves became friendly with Buck. Buck joined the wolf pack.
