Why was white fang bewildered when he returned to the home village?

White Fang was bewildered when he returned to the home village because he had been raised in the wilderness and had little exposure to human civilization. The sights, sounds, and smells of the village were completely foreign to him, causing confusion and disorientation. Additionally, he had developed a strong sense of independence and survival instincts in the wild, which clashed with the rules and expectations of human society.
