Neck, from head to shoulders, a mass of bristling hair; sharp pointed ears, long-snouted, lips snarling, fangs dripping; yelping
rather than barking; wolfish of aspect and not nice to look upon when in anger—this is the husky, or wolf-dog, of the North. What is the author’s purpose in this excerpt?
to persuade the reader to develop a liking for huskies
to entertain the reader with an amusing story about huskies
to persuade the reader that huskies should not live in the wild
to inform the reader about the wild appearance of huskies
