Sanger Rainsford outsmarted General Zaroff in many unique ways. At the beginning‚ he made a decoy trail that was very confusing.

Here is the evidence that support these

successfully outsmart General Zaroff in the manhunt? In “The Most Dangerous Game” there are multiple ways Rainsford outsmarts Zaroff but there are three main ways‚ that are my favorite.

To spice it up‚ instead of hunting animals‚ General Zaroff hunts humans‚ and chases them. Rainsford thinks that it is a joke. General Zaroff has humans in his basement waiting for the hunting game to begin. It is clear that since he kills humans‚ he will probably kill Rainsford. In order to stop this ’dangerous’ game‚ Rainsford has to kill General Zaroff

he theme in “The Most Dangerous Game” is hunter becomes the hunted‚ where Rainsford the hunter becomes the hunted by General Zaroff.

General Zaroff in the story “The Most Dangerous Game” by Richard Connell is a narcissistic-psychopathic devil. One quotes that shows this is when the General says‚ “I hunt the scum of the earth: sailors from tramp ships- lassars‚ blacks‚ chinese‚ whites‚ mongrels- a thoroughbred horse or hound is worth more than a score of them.” This shows that General Zaroff was narcissistic because all of the people he lists as scum of the Earth take up the entire population of the world. He believes that he
