  2. It means you hunt them or you are being hunted. This means if you are not strong or smart skilled you are dead. The other meaning is if your tuff and smart skilled you live.

  14. I think this is a bad thing to say to someone, because it is saying that the protagonist is in a higher rank because they hunt.
    I believe in hunting, but I'm not putting myself on a higher rank.

    ReplyDelete
  17. Well I think that it's ok to hunt as long as u eat it after wards. Cause other animals will kill and eat there pray, it's the circle of life. But if u kill just for fun and don't eat it then that's bad.

    1. What do you consider yourself?

      Delete
    2. Well I consider my self neither because being hunted is like a murder and you being a hunter is like killing for fun.

      Delete
  26. A hunter means that you kill people just because you want to do it for fun. Then a hunted is when someone is trying to kill you for not doing what they want you to do. So I think I will just leave all of this and not be a hunter or the hunted.

  30. I think that Rainford did a good job killing Zaroff because he was killing a lot of people that did not do nothing to him. I will do the same because I won't let him try to kill me because he wants to kill me I would just kill him so he could stop killing innocent people.
