At the mouth of the Tahkeena, one night after supper, Dub turned up a snowshoe rabbit, blundered it, and missed.

在塔基拿河口, 饭后的一个晚上, 达布挖出一只雪兔, 手脚却不麻利, 没有逮到。

They had made short work of the snowshoe rabbit, these dogs that were ill-tamed wolves; and they were now drawn up in an expectant circle.

他们三口两口就把雪兔吃掉了。这群狗都是些尚未很好驯化的狼, 这会儿他们围成一个圆圈, 期待着什么。
