This question is incomplete. Here's the complete question.

Read The law of life, by Jack London

Consider Koskoosh's memory of the bull moose. What meaning does this memory contribute to the story's central themes?

Answer: The moose´s death, as Koskoosh´s, becomes a symbol of the law of life, as every living creature is meant to die someday.

Step-by-step explanation:

Koskoosh recollection about a sick old moose being left behind by the rest of the heard and subsequently getting killed by wolves, reminds him of his mortality, as he realizes that his situation is the same. Koskoosh himself has become old and been left behind to die by his tribe. And he understands that, despite any efforts to fight it, death is part of the law of life.
