Which line from “The Most Dangerous Game” best summarizes Rainsford’s attitude at the beginning of the story?
Setler [38]
Toward the start of the story, Rainsford's demeanor is genuinely chilly toward the creatures that he chases. Rainsford cherishes chasing, and he feels no sensitivity for the creatures that he chases and murders. While Rainsford and Whitney are both on the watercraft, Whitney expresses that he trusts that the Jaguars that they are going to chase have emotions. Rainsford expels the thought as Jabber, yet Whitney holds on that in any event the creatures must know fear.
