Which statement best describes the point of view of
this story?
At the man's heels trotted a dog, a big native husky, the
proper wolf-dog, grey-coated and in appearance and
temperament almost identical to its brother, the wild
wolf. The animal was depressed by the tremendous
cold. It knew that it was no time for travelling. Its instinct
told it a truer tale than was told to the man by the man's
judgment. In reality, it was not merely colder than fifty
below zero: it was seventy-five below zero. The dog did
not know anything about thermometers, but the brute
had its instinct.
