Hal bears the most blame. His cruel ignorance — brutal handling of the dogs, insistence on overloading the sled, and refusal to listen to experienced advice — directly causes the animals’ suffering and the expedition’s collapse, whereas Charles is passive and Mercedes is foolish and demanding but less physically destructive.
