To find the correct answer to this multiple-choice question, we need to analyze the possible options and eliminate the incorrect ones.
Option 1: "He was eager to join the hunt for gold."
Option 2: "Judge Miller sold him to a pair of French Canadian mail carriers."
Option 3: "He was kidnapped by a gardener and sold to cover gambling debts."
The first option doesn't seem to be the correct answer because it is mentioned twice.
Now let's consider the second option. In The Call of the Wild, Buck didn't end up in the Yukon Territory because Judge Miller sold him to a pair of French Canadian mail carriers. This event did occur in the story, but it doesn't explain why Buck ended up in the Yukon Territory.
Finally, let's examine the third option. In The Call of the Wild, Buck indeed ended up in the Yukon Territory because he was kidnapped by a gardener and sold to cover gambling debts. This event is significant to the story and explains Buck's journey to the Yukon Territory.
Therefore, the correct answer is:
(3) He was kidnapped by a gardener and sold to cover gambling debts.
