Travis and Old Yeller slept in the cornfield to protect the crops from wild animals, particularly hogs that threatened to eat the corn. By staying in the field overnight, they could keep watch and ensure the safety of their harvest. This decision also highlights their strong bond and the importance of teamwork in facing challenges on the farm.

Old Yeller How did Travis react to another visit from Bud Searcy?

He's angry at him because Bud Searcy is always bothering folks, and on the day Bud Searcy came over after Travis got scratched by the hogs, Travis knew he'd be a bother to his Mama, because even though he talked about helping the women and children in Salt Licks while the men were gone, he'd never offer to chop wood or gather in a corn crop. And all he'd do was sit under the dog run all day, chewing tobacco and spitting juice all over the place, and, he'd expect Travis's Mama to cook him a good supper if he stayed that long. His Mama had ten times too much to do.
