Similarities Between Pi And Richard Parker

In our world human beings don’t usually act like animals, some people say in words that we have class and know how to act . Like the rich and famous they know how to keep calm and act like a normal human being without getting carried away. But there are common ways for human beings to get things carried away even the rich and famous. Just like Pi when he acted like a animal when he was at sea all alone with Richard Parker. But in the world that we live, we can definitely see the resemblance of how we could act like animals like Pi did.

When Pi was stranded with Richard Parker at sea it was hard to keep calm because he had to make sure to distract Richard Parker from eating him. Richard Parker marked his territory by peeing around
Since Pi was stranded out at sea he took it upon himself since there wasn’t enough can food to eat he began take in seafood. By his actions he had to open and tear with his bare hands a fish to eat and it was raw not even cooked. Pi didn’t like it but it was a part for him to survive, but also by doing this he took care of Richard Parker. By catching food and sharing some with him so that Pi wouldn’t be on Richard Parkers food chart too eat. One of Pi’s greater imperative was thirst. He used the can water and made solar stills that were used to purify the water. But he ran out and part of his thirst he drank the fish or any sea creatures blood. For us human this can be an act that's called cannibalism. This is the human practice of eating the flesh of one's own species. It was big back in the day when there were no animals or plants to eat. Now and days its illegal to eat one another, but others find a way to still do it in the world. For example a Russian couple reportedly captured up to 30 people before skinning them alive and eating them. They have used left overs of human meat and canned them with solution giving it to other people. This is very disturbing but this is the world that we live in. Another example of this behaviour can be referred to the cook on the island that Pi was at. The cook was almost about to kill Pi and eat him since he killed a girl and a male, but the cook didn't know there was an animal on the island which is Richard Parke . Pi tried to tell the cook to stop and warned him about Richard Parker but it was too late. The cook was eaten alive my Richard Parker and Pi was thankful but scared at the same
