He faces many challenges, including a fierce rivalry with a pack of wolves and a dangerous encounter with a lynx.In the fourth part, White Fang is reunited with Scott and his family, but must protect them from a group of criminals who threaten their safety. The final part of the novel sees White Fang settling down with a mate and starting a family of his own.
