Loose Translation of Part about the Lead dog getting Killed. BAÏKAL F rère of milk of Nanook and Torok, he became the head of pack since the disappearance of Otchum in which he largely took part. Difficult not to think of it but how to be upset with him to behave in dog of pack? Baïkal is a remarkable trotter, it has only one very small defect: a slight tendency to lose the " will to go " on long-hauls but is really to seek " the small animal ".

Here is the Siberian Liaka that was the Father of the crossbred dogs that killed him. It seems very sad since the book shows how gentle he was with Vaniers 4 year old daughter, pulling her on a little sled and even listening to her commands. He also reportedly saved Vanier from a Grizzly. The book doesn't mention him getting Killed, but does show Otcham dominating one of his sons. (I guess he got the upper hand later.) http://www.nicolas-vanier.com/newimages/otchum1p.jpg
