What effect does the jungle have on the boys? In Lord Of The Flies.
Veseljchak [2.6K]
The jungle makes them turn from civilized boys to savage beasts.  For example, the boys, especially Ralph and Piggy, immediately attempt to create a system of order on the island, reminiscent of their lives in British society.  However, the boys' animal like and primal instincts are brought out by the harshness of the jungle.  Examples of this include when the boys kill the pig brutally, when they kill Piggy and Simon in their rage, and when they attempt to kill Ralph.  Jack is the ringleader of the brutality, but the majority of the other boys, save Piggy and Ralph, and partially Samneric, become savage as well.
