- Exposition
- Rising Action (1)
- Rising Action (2)
- The exposition of this story takes place in the forest with a dialogue between Rainsford (right) and Whitney (left). The dialogue consists of how Rainsford doesn't care about the animals he kills. When Rainsford aforementioned that "You’re a big-game2 hunter, not a philosopher. Who cares how a jaguar feels"(Connell 10).
- Climax
- When Rainsford was on his yacht the sailors heard gunshots and sailed away making Rainsford stumble and fall off. The 32nd paragraph talks about how Rainsford tries to call for help but is unsuccessful in doing so. Eventually, Rainsford heard gunshots in the distance and followed the sound in hopes of help.
- Falling Action
- After following the gunshot Rainsford sees a mysterious creature that he can't identify proven when he aforementioned “A 22,”14 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.” (Connell 42). Rainsford ignores this and keeps walking until he finds a big house in the middle of nowhere. He meets a man named Zaroff an experienced hunter who now hunts humans because they are harder to kill than any other animal and now he wishes to hunt Rainsford.
- Resolution
- After Zaroff has been playing cat and mouse with Rainsford, he gets corned. So as a As Rainsford was being hunted he got corned by Zaroff's hounds. So as a last resort he jumped off the cliff as the book aforementioned"Twenty feet below him the sea rumbled and hissed. Rainsford hesitated. He heard the hounds. Then he leaped far out into the sea…" (Connell 197). He survived the fall and made it back to Zaroff's house to end the game.
- After Rainsford swims back to land he makes it back to the house to ambush Zaroff. Zaroff congratulates Rainsford on winning, but Rainsford mentions “I am still a beast at bay,” (Connell 204). The two fight in a duel with the winner sleeping in a comfy bed while the loser is fed to the hounds.
- The story ends with Rainsford mentioning "He had never slept in a better bed, Rainsford decided" (Connell 206). This leaves the reader to assume that Rainsford won the fight and Zaroff was fed to the dogs. Rainsford probably has a little more humanity from this experience now knowing what it's like being the hunted rather than the hunter.
