General Zaroff suggests the moral dilemma of whether hunting another person can be justified in "The Most Dangerous Game."

Step-by-step explanation:

In the passage from "The Most Dangerous Game," General Zaroff suggests the moral dilemma of whether hunting another person can be justified. He explains that he seeks an ideal quarry that possesses courage, cunning, and the ability to reason. Rainsford objects, stating that no animal can reason, but the general claims that there is one that can. Rainsford then expresses his moral opposition to cold-blooded murder.
