Explanation:

To solve this, we recall the plot of The Call of the Wild. After Spitz is killed, Buck takes the lead dog position by refusing to be harnessed unless he is at the front of the line. Option a is incorrect as Buck doesn't bark to get the position. Option b is incorrect as Sol - leks doesn't snap him into the lead position. Option c is incorrect as Perrault doesn't offer the position; Buck takes it through his actions.

Answer:

D. refusing to be harnessed unless he is at the front of the line.
