Hunting is a sport that requires an enormous amount of dexterity. General Zaroff and Sanger Rainsford are the two best hunters in the world. Zaroff and Rainsford are on a remote island together and Rainsford can only leave once he has won the game. General Zaroff and Rainsford are two intelligent hunters with great and enhanced abilities.

Rainsfords is panicked and running for his life, he's also scared of what General Zaroff will do to him when he catches him. Rainsfords force himself towards the gap between these two trees. He got closer to gap to see open water, and then he went to for it, he jumped. ‘“I am still a beast at bay, Rainsfords said, in a low hoarse voice, Rainsfords said this after he jumped off the cliff and swam back to the land.

Sanger Rainsford manages to beat General Zaroff at his own twisted game. It seems like all hope is lost, but not for Rainsford. He proves he can do whatever it takes to survive against all odds and he can push through even the toughest of situations. The key to Rainsford’s survival comes from his many survival skills; his true bravery shines through as General Zaroff comes closer to killing him, he is extremely clever; he can act fast when needed and he remains level headed through it all.

Both protagonists, have similar conflicts which contain having them killed. In the story General Zaroff says, "Your brain against mine. Your woodcraft against mine. Your strength and stamina against mine. Outdoor chess! And the stake is not without value, eh?" (Connell 16). General Zaroff has the intention of killing Rainsford to cure his own boredom. This is the similar to when Frank Miller is coming in town to kill Kane. They also

Even through Zaroff hunted, him later, Zaroff also treated Rainsford as if he was an equal because Rainsford was on his “level”. This made Zaroff more like a gentleman. Another reason why Zaroff is a gentleman is that he gave Rainsford a heads up that he uses hounds for the hunt, and he gave Rainsford a hunting knife, moccasins and a supply of food. He also inform Rainsford that he will bring him back to the mainland if he lasted into the third night. Another reason why Zaroff is a gentleman is he gave Rainsford an option if he wanted to participate in the game, what I mean by this is that Zaroff inform Rainsford if he does not wish to hunt, he could play Ivan’s ideas of sport (which is probably the worst) I knew Zaroff gave Rainsford a choice because in the text Zaroff said “the choice rests entirely with you” (he was referring to Rainsford). These are my reasons on why Zaroff is a

Rainsford experienced how it was to be hunted. The general was going to kill Rainsford another day. “The general was saving him for another day’s sport”(Connell 34). He knows how it feels to be played with and tricked. Rainsford was being hunted as if he was an animal. Rainsford was trying to confuse Zarroff of following his trail. “He executed a series of intricate loops; he doubled on his trail again and again recalling all the lore of the fox hunt and all the dodges of the fox.”(Connell 34). He knows that he has to think to outsmart the general. Rainsford was being hunted so he was trying to confuse the general by acting like an animal. Zarroff was the cat and the mouse was rainsford. “The

     Rainsford is certainly a brave character. ‘“Hunting, Good God, General Zaroff, what you speak of is murder” (110). Rainsford is composed until he figures out that Zaroff’s new species is human beings. Rainsford has just met this man, doesn’t know where he is or anything about those people but he still puts his foot down. Rainsford knew it was murder, and so did Zaroff, but it was brave for Rainsford to tell him he would not keep a secret of what Zaroff was doing and Rainsford demanded to be taken home immediately. Rainsford was brave to tell Zaroff, straight forward, that he would not participate in his game. ‘“Ivan,” he said to Rainsford, “will supply you with hunting clothes, food, and a knife”’ (170). Rainsford was now in the game and had to participate. His bravery came out when a three day duel was forced against his will.

The second reason why Rainsford is a hypocrite is because he tells General Zaroff that hunting humans is murdering them. While the two men are talking, Rainsford makes a comment saying that he is a hunter, not a murderer. In reality, hunting animals for enjoyment is also murdering them, which Rainsford is widely known for. The third reason and most important reason why Rainsford is a hypocrite is because he is against murdering humans, even though he kills two people. Rainsford tells General Zaroff, while they are sitting at the dining room table, that what the General is doing to the sailors is murdering them and that he is against murder. Then, later in the story, Rainsford murders Ivan and General Zaroff, with little remorse. Other readers might believe he killed them out of self defense, but I believe he doesn’t. Rainsford had the option of not killing either of the men. General Zaroff offered to make peace at the end, but instead of taking it, Rainsford murders him. Rainsford didn’t have to create the trap that killed Ivan, but he

On the other hand, Rainsford is faced by an opponent who was a survivor of the Czar overthrow, General Zaroff. However, he continues to pursue social acceptance through his favorite sport. He has to learn the survival skills because he ends up on an island that depends on hunting and he is the hunted. Consequently, each of the characters faces a moral dilemma.
