In the story Buck is constantly faced with difficult obstacles in which he must use his instinct to overcome them. Some of these obstacles include the countless attacks of wild huskies and the harsh beatings by his few unfriendly owners. But the one unordinary situation Buck had to pick between the wild and his latest owner John Thornton. Thornton had saved Bucks life when a sled pulled by Buck and his pack fell through the ice along with Hal, Charles, and Mercedes. Buck felt a new love for Thornton that he hadn’t left since back at the Millers home in California. Their relationship became stronger and Buck actually ended up saving John twice. But when they take a voyage east Buck begins to come more amazed by the wild and would leave the camp to hunt with other wolves. This caused Buck to live two lives, therefore creating a conflict between the call of the wild and his loyalty to Thornton.
