"White Fang" starts out with 2 men and a group of 6 sled dogs traveling across the Arctic
with a dead man in a coffin. This group was followed by a pack of famished wolves. Each
night a female half wolf half dog would seduce a dog away and allow the pack to kill him.
This killing of the dogs lasted until there were 3 dogs remaining. One man tried to save a
4th dog that was being killed by the wolves and ended up getting killed also. From then on
the wolves closed in on the camp of the remaining man and 2 dogs. Just as the fire, that
was keeping the wolves away, on the camp burned low a rescue party came and saved the
man and the 2 dogs from being eaten. After departing the pack came upon a 800 lb. bull
moose. From there the pack split up to mate 3 wolves followed the half wolf half dog or
the she-wolf. The 3 wolves fought and One- eye, a old fighting wolf, won and won the
rights to the she-wolf. The she-wolf gave birth to 5 wolf pups. The only one to survive
was a spunky cub named White Fang. White Fang became a pet of the Indians. He moved
with the Indians everywhere they traveled, yet he still heard the call of the wild. They
cherished him as he became a great fighter, fighting dogs. He became wise and learned
many tricks. His value to them was priceless except a man named Beauty Smith found a
way to buy him through liquor. Beauty Smith used White Fang as a valuable fighter. He
arranged fights and took in bets on them. White Fang whipped everybody he fought until
he fought a pitbull. The pitbull had White Fang by the neck and was slowly going in to
open the jugular. Then a man named Weedon Scott punched Beauty Smith and pried the
pitbull's teeth off of White Fang's neck. Scott started to love White Fang and pet him.
