“I’ll be okay, Dad,” said Arthur. “Don’t worry.”

“Then let’s mush,” said John. He yanked the reins, signalling the dogs to run.

Moon Dog took off like a shot.

“Well, he’s certainly enthusiastic,” called Sam, as he and his dogs followed John’s sled.

“But for what?” called Rob. “He could just be taking us on a wild ride into nowhere.”

“Let’s think good thoughts,” Emily said. Rob rolled his eyes.

“Oh, no! Look!” Rob slowed his dogs down. “Poor beast!” he said, pointing to a spot near the trees. John and Sam slowed their sleds and looked back. They all stared at what remained of a dead caribou.

Emily gulped. “It was probably the one the wolves attacked last night,” she murmured.

Sam shook his head “Not much is left of that creature after those wolves had their fill. Maybe the caribou was already hurt. Wolves will attack the weakest caribou. We certainly saw that when we followed the herds.”

“But where’s Bruno?” asked Rob.

“I hope he survived meeting the wolves,” said Matt.

“Let’s go,” said John. “There’s nothing we can do here.” He signalled his dogs to mush.

For the next hour no one said anything. The dogs panted as they flew across the swirling snow.

Then Moon Dog started barking.

He stopped running.
