Is Rainsford Justified

When Rainsford first means Zaroff he sees him as a good hunter because of all of his trophies. Not much later Rainsford learns that Zaroff hunts humans, so Rainsford sees how evil a hunter can be. Another way Zaroff drives the theme is to make Rainsford feel like the animals he used to hunt. While Zaroff is hunting Rainsford, he says he now knows the true meaning of terrified; so now he knows how the animals he hunted felt. He also felt how it feels to know there isn’t much of a chance that you are going to survive.

After playing the game and being the huntee, Rainsford learns how the animal feels when being hunted. The themes of High Noon and “The Most Dangerous Game” reflect each other, because Will Kane and Rainsford are both normally the ones that “hunt,” Kane hunts down the criminals and Rainsford hunts down animals. When Frank Miller returns to town, Kane has to run and

However, hunting has changed drastically since it first began. People used hunting as a necessary way of life. They would use the animals meat for food, and their skin for clothes to stay warm. Now hunting is mostly used as a sport, trophy hunting is very common. Hunters will hunt for the joy and the thrill of killing an animal, but they do not consider the consequences.

In “The Most Dangerous Game” there is an eerie, ominous tone to it. Zaroff helps add onto this by explaining about his hunting. “My dear fellow, said the general, there is one thing that can. But you can’t mean- - gasped Rainsford” (Connell 221). This tone is making you eerie because at this point Rainsford learns that Zaroff is hunting people.

Hunting is the practice of killing or trapping any animal or pursuing it with the intent of doing so. Hunting wildlife is most commonly done by humans for food or sport. The animals that are hunted are referred to as game. Hunting is not a bad thing or a good thing. They both have their cons and pros.

Although a small detail, it would make sense that someone could have desired his status. In Ötzi’s time and culture, when people of authority were killed, their position would go to their killer. He was running from the avenging clan mate, and the killer rolled him over and likely took something back with him to prove he

Most Dangerous Game Argumentation Paragraph The story, “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell is about Sanger Rainsford ends up on an island with General Zaroff, who hunts humans. Rainsford ends up playing General Zaroff’s game and becomes the huntee while Zaroff is the hunter. Zaroff loses the game and gets killed by Rainsford. Rainsford was justified in killing General Zaroff. During the time Rainsford is in Zaroff’s house they have a conversation about hunting.

I’m sorry about what happened, but we have even bigger problems now. There is another hunter who lives here. His name is General Zaroff. He is trying to kill me. He got bored with hunting animals so he hunts people instead.

In the text read in class, “The Most Dangerous Game”, Rainsford displayed many instances where he persevered. Not only does General Zaroff respect Rainsford as a hunter, but his intentions are to now make this hunter his prey. The reader does not expect Rainsford to make it out alive but he now conquers the game General Zaroff has worked so hard on to master, hunting humans. Leading up to Rainsford killing General Zaroff, Rainsford showed his many different acquired hunting skills when fighting on the island. He made several different traps in attempt to kill Zaroff that ended in failure, but when Rainsford jumped into the ocean and swam to the house of General Zaroff, he showed signs of perseverance.

The statement by Sanger Rainsford “The world is made up of two classes the hunters and the huntees” means that there are people hunting and there are people who are being hunted. How I feel about the statement is that it is true that is what makes up this world but it is wrong to hunt for fun but right for survival. If you are hunting to find food that is okay but if it’s just to kill something then that is not right. From the book “The Most Dangerous Game” General Zaroff was an remarkable hunter he had hunted so many animals but he was bored of that and started hunting people who came upon his island. The main example from the book was that the General was a hunter and the people and Rainsford were the huntees.
