if the adults didn't accept the pups, they would eat them.
if the adults accepted the pups, they would run away from the camp.
At the start of Chapter 4, we realize that Makuyi is hiding and not accepted by the pack. She would approach the pack timidly, as if to "test the waters" of acceptance. What does the idiom "test the waters" mean?
It means to try to figure out a reaction before fully committing to something.

Akai attacked Jim but only intended to send a warning message to him. How is Jim certain Akai didn't intend to hurt him?

Jim could understand the howls of wolves and what they meant.
A wolf's bite is strong enough to crush bone but Akai didn't crush down with all his strength.
Akai gave a warning growl that is consistent with that of a warning.
By the end of Chapter 4, both Akai and Makuyi have been relocated to other wolf refuges and there was a change in weather. The narrator shares that winter started to subside and spring was warming up the mountains. This new energetic setting lends to a mood of...
