One of the main themes in The Call of the Wild is the appeal of the wild. This appeal draws in both Buck and the reader. Take a few minutes to come up with a list of questions about "the wild" that you would be interested in exploring further. Perhaps it can be about how your ancestors lived a long time ago. Or, it could be about where you live and what it was like before people settled there. It can be about you, about an animal, or some other big idea connected to the wild.

Once you have written down your questions, identify two you might want to explore further. Note two possible credible sources you might be able to use to find information to help you answer at least two of your questions.

In an organized list, note your two research questions and the credible sources that you located that would be relevant to these questions. You should have at least one research source per question.
