Answer:
Rainsford stumbles upon a scene where something large, probably an animal to his logic, had been injured and fell into the jungle underbrush writhing around and suffering. He also found an empty gun cartridge which indicated this animal's injuries were from being shot.
Explanation:
This quote from the short story serves as evidence for the answer.
'Some wounded thing--by the evidence, a large animal--had thrashed about in the underbrush; the jungle weeds were crushed down and the moss was lacerated; one patch of weeds was stained crimson. A small, glittering object not far away caught Rainsford's eye and he picked it up. It was an empty cartridge.'
Materialism
It is clear that what is most important to many characters in the novel is what money can buy them. The reader sees this not only with Gatsby, who throws his party so that Daisy one day will hopefully walk in and be impressed with his things, but with other characters too. The owl-eyed man in Gatsby's library is so impressed that the books are real! Tom buys a puppy for Myrtle and also feels a bit like he owns her. This obsession with 'things' was very prevalent in the 1920s all around.
