The answer is indeed A) the source of the hunting-cries.
Explanation:
As we know, when it comes to literature, an antagonist is usually a character that opposes the main character (the protagonist). That definition is a bit too simple, though. An antagonist can be anything that offers some sort of conflict or hostility, maybe a challenge for the main characters.
In the excerpt we are studying here - taken from Jack London's "White Fang"-, we clearly have a conflict of Man vs. Nature. The characters are in a most inhospitable place where the cold itself already poses a terrible threat. But, in this particular part of the story there is something disturbing the sled dogs, creating even more conflict and difficulties for the characters to face. The disturbance is caused by the hunting-cries they can hear coming closer from "right and left and rear". The characters have a hard time controlling the dogs, and even complain that the cries are getting on their nerves. They wish the men who are hunting would go somewhere else and leave them alone.

C. as a means of keeping the audience awake.
