What are call of the wild's dolly's character traits?
It's hard to tell. She was the last dog added to the nine-dog team of Francois and Perrault, at the end of chapter two, and nothing is said about her...the reader doesn't even learn her name until early in chapter three, when she is badly injured, getting her throat slashed open in a fight between the team and a swarm of starving mangy huskies from an Indian village. A few paragraphs later comes the passage: "...Dolly, who had never been conspicuous for anything, went suddenly mad." This is the first time Dolly is directly addressed as an individual dog.
Apparently she got rabies from one of the half-wild dogs. The rest of the team flees from her in terror at her madness. She fixes on Buck and pursues him to the point of exhaustion, but Francois saves Buck by killing Dolly with an ax.
Unless you consider the ferocity -- caused by madness -- as a character trait, Dolly has no traits. As London wrote, she had never been conspicuous for anything.

Why does Jack London kill off John Thorton in Call of the Wild?
When John Thornton goes to his mine he is abducted by Indians and later killed by them and then buck goes and kills all the Indians making him even more wild than he already was
Jack London lets John Thornton die so that Buck can fully tap into his instincts and answer his "Call of the Wild." without thornton dieing Buck wouldn't let himself be completely devoted to the wilderness even though he had become so attached to it because of the companionship that the two shared. In other words, even though it was an unfortunate event without it, the book really would've been quite pointless.

Billee and Buck were driven from camp due to their perceived weakness and inability to adapt to the harsh conditions of the Yukon wilderness. In Jack London's "The Call of the Wild," they were seen as liabilities by the more dominant dogs and their human handlers, who prioritized strength and survival. Their departure reflects the brutal realities of life in the wild, where only the fittest could endure.

To steal. He watched Pike steal some food and then Buck copied his steps and stole food as well.
What is the evidence of naturalism in Jack London's The Call of the Wild?
Jack London uses literary naturalism in writing Call of the Wild. Literary naturalism is the belief that when humans return to their natural, primitive state in nature, they will regain their natural instincts and become wild. In simpler terms, if humans go back to the wild, they become wild.
The character Buck is taken out of the domestication, pampered, house pet life of Judge Miller's estate and forced to work as a sled dog for Francios and Perrault. He meets a dog named Spitz who has great pride in being the lead dog status. He becomes wild and uses survival of the fittest and social Darwinism. Those are, in simplest terms, "eat or be eaten."
Buck also becomes wild when he leaves the custody of John Thornton, the only man he ever loved in his lifetime. Thornton rescues Buck from the greedy, inexperienced Hal, Charles, and Mercedes. Buck and Thornton create a loving bond with each other.
But buck hears the trees and wild physically calling him, urging him into the wild. He finally leaves John Thornton for the wild where he remains for a few weeks. But the most influential factor in Buck's naturalism is when he returns after those few weeks in the wild.
Buck comes back to find the Yeehat tribe dancing on the dead bodies of Thornton and his men. In anger, Buck kills a few Yeehats and the rest run off. The Yeehats forever speak of an "Evil Spirit" of Buck long after Buck is dead.
In conclusion, at the end of the book, Buck enters the wild to maintain balance and make the law; he uses survival of the fittest and the law of club and fang in the wild until he dies. London displays literary naturalism throughout the entire description of the character Buck.
