But when the frames of poles were made into tepees by being covered with cloth and skins, White Fang was astounded. It was the colossal bulk of them that impressed him. They arose around him, on every side, like some monstrous quick-growing form of life. They occupied nearly the whole circumference of his field of vision. He was afraid of them. They loomed ominously above him; and when the breeze stirred them into huge movements, he cowered down in fear, keeping his eyes warily upon them, and prepared to spring away if they attempted to precipitate themselves upon him.

What does White Fang’s interaction with the setting reveal?

It reveals how differently White Fang and the humans view their environment.
It reveals how excited White Fang is to be in a new environment.
It reveals how White Fang’s relationship with the humans is changing from one of fear to one of trust.
It reveals how White Fang has almost completely forgotten about his life in the wild.

White Fang is a novel that was written by Jack London. It tells us the story of a wolfdog that goes from a violent owner to a more of a friend than an owner Scott.

In this excerpt, we are described how White Fang reacts to tepees (Native American tents made of poles and cloths/skins). He was surprised and confused by how many of them were and how fast they appeared one after another. The wind intensified the effect of tall, scary structures on White Fang.

So, in the eyes of Indians, tepees are shelters from cold, wind, rain, wild animals, etc, but for a dog who adjusts to the human way of living, they are nothing but something to be afraid of.
