At the cave where the wild dogs live, Karana builds a fire to smoke the animals out. There are far more dogs than she has arrows, so she saves them for the leader. Because the leader dog is gray and has yellow eyes - a different breed than most of the others - she assumes he came from the Aleut ship.
