Explanation:

The main character of the book is Buck, a 140-pound mixed St. Bernard-Scotch Collie who lived happily in California with Judge Miller. The best inference about Buck that is supported by Chapter 1 is that Buck is frustrated with his life. In Chapter 1 of the book, 'The Call of the Wild' by Jack London, Buck is living a pampered life in Santa Clara Valley.

However, when he is stolen and taken to the harsh Klondike region, he experiences a drastic change in his circumstances. This change can be seen as frustrating for Buck as he is forced to adapt to a completely new environment and face challenges he has never encountered before.
