Buck has left John and the mining camp to go hunt and has decided that he will bring down a great old bull moose. As he follows it and harries it for days, the Yeehat Indians have attacked the mining camp and killed John. Buck knows nothing of this until he kills and feasts on the moose and then begins his journey back to camp. On his way there he begins to sense that something has changed. He notes that the animals are different and making different noises and singing different songs.
When he finally reaches the camp, the Yeehats are still there and he attacks them with an incredible ferocity. They were so terrified and he was so ferocious that they thought it was the evil spirit come to torment them.
