A leader is someone who has a commanding force over whomever it is that they are commanding. Whereas this is true, a truly outstanding leader is not a dictator over your team that you despise but must follow, but a mutual respect between the leader and the leaded. Buck has an gleaming personality and such extraordinary leadership skills. In the book, “The Call of the Wild”, Buck undergoes many challenges throughout the story such as being abruptly taken from his easy-going, laid back life in Santa Clara being a pampered pet by Judge Miller. Even though Buck faces some remarkably challenging burdens, he does continue to show us that he was born to do this because of his remarkable leadership skills.

The call of the wild is about a dog named buck hat goes through many owners and then goes to the wild and joins a wolf pack. The central idea in The Call of The Wild is the way you treat animals can tell about you and your personality.

Buck is a type of dog that doesn’t give give up, he was taken through some of the worst conditions and yet survived them. He was stolen, he was beaten, he was forced to run the entire distance of the Yukon mountain range. But yet he pushed through clung to life as if it was the only thing left that he had.

Buck is cared for and respected by Judge Miller however Judge does not love Buck. In chapter 6 it states ‘’and with the Judge himself a stately and dignified friendship. ’This shows that Judge respects and is friends with but does not love Buck.

First, Buck has to prove not only himself but also his strength. For example, Buck has to pull a 1,000 pound sled for 100 yards, in result of this he wins John and his new companions $1,600, which they take with them to look for gold. Since, Buck learns that he can do anything he puts his mind to, and he has the strength to carry on. Next, Buck has to adapt to being in the wild.

In the beginning of the book Buck was thrown into a whole new environment. He was the newby who had plenty of new things to learn. As if it wasn't hard enough the dogs weren't the friendliest and tended to take what wasn't theirs. As soon as Buck began to adapt to his environment he began fighting back leading to him standing up for himself. He began to build strength through this transformation as a result making him much more powerful. This would become his first step toward leadership. The leader at this time was Splitz, who I think found Buck as a threat because he knew he had great potential of being a leader. Buck was the only on in the pack who matched Splitz in strength. Meaning splitz was just waiting for a fight to pick with Buck, a fight to the death. Buck wasn't scared, I know this because Buck was brave. Buck first showed his bravery against the man in the red sweater who beat Buck with a club and yet Buck never let that phase him. Very soon Buck would show this strength  and bravery. Slowly equality began to be shown to him and Splitz from the rest of the pack. At the same time the dogs didn't really fear splitz anymore either in fact they even began bullying him. The day came when a fight to the death would occur between Buck and the fierce

Perseverance is an immense trait that rules all if one contains it. Never giving up, pushing through, that is what it means, and that’s what it takes. Perseverance can be mastered by anyone, you have to fight and never back down to succeed. Raise the bar, and push past others. Both Buck and Leighton persevered by succeeding in the face of adversity and giving it everything they had.

Call of the Wild A major theme in The Call of The Wild is that one must adapt to survive, which buck does throughout the entire book.

For example, he sees that Manuel isn’t perfect when he steals and sells him so he can have money for the Chinese Lottery.

I can see how he can be Buck could be a sled dog because it is an opportunity to get out more. Hard work will show but sometimes the reward is nothing. If you do something wrong,

Buck would grow up be lazy having weak bones. If one day someone gave him a task to be a sled dog he would not last long he would

The feelings shared between them were often based on inexplicable natural impulses, characteristic of the relationship between man and beast. "He went wild with happiness when Thornton touched him or spoke to him....the strength of Buck's gaze would draw John Thornton's head around, and he would return the gaze, without speech, his heart shining out of his eyes as Buck's heart shone out" (London 75). The connection that the two share is very important in Buck's transformation because it is the last thing he must surrender to complete his transformation and answer the call of the wild.

In The Call of the Wild, one theme could be that only the strongest survive, Buck goes through significant changes in his life and has to learn very quickly how to adapt in order to survive. The connection between this theme and natural selection is that if you are not able to adapt or suited for a certain task, you will fail. If Buck had not adapted and learned how to a sled dog, he would have most likely of died. When it says "only the strongest survive" it means that if you are not prepared or are weak, you will die first. In natural selection, when disasters happen or things in the world change, only the strongest, smartest, and quickest to adapt will survive. Bucks life changed very rapidly, but he was able to adapt very quickly to his
