Jack London as considered one of the best writers of American naturalism is well-liked by a wide readership of all ages more than 70 years in the world. Darwin’s idea of ‘constant struggle in nature’ and Spencer’s theory of ‘the survival of the fittest’ had a deep influence on him. A reader is confrontedwith the feeling of a bitter winter, a sharp pain of starvation, a longing for cosiness in his works. His stories have mainly to do with ‘dog-heroes’. This article is concerned with the analyses of the world of the wild that London presented in his creativity. Best works that he produced about animals.
