Read the excerpt from "The Most Dangerous Game." "A twenty-two," he remarked. "That's odd. It must have been a fairly large animal too. The hunter had his nerve with him to tackle it with a light gun. It's clear that the brute put up a fight. I suppose the first three shots I heard was when the hunter flushed his quarry and wounded it. The last shot was when he trailed it here and finished it." What does this line of dialogue reveal about Rainsford’s character? He worries that the hunters will find him. He is a very experienced hunter. He can identify the animal that was killed. He is unimpressed by the hunter’s skills.
