Explanation:

Rainsford and General Zaroff are characters in the short story "The Most Dangerous Game", by Richard Connell. They are both skilled hunters, and their interaction changes both characters' lives.

At the beginning of the story, Rainsford is talking to a friend. During this dialog, he shows no empathy for the animals he hunts. He says they have no understanding and, therefore, need not be pitied. His friend is of the opinion that animals understand fear, and that should be enough for humans to empathize with them.

Rainsford accidentally falls from the yatch in which he is traveling and lands in General Zaroff's island. Zaroff has long been hunting men, for he thinks no animal in the world represents a true challenge to his skills any longer. When Rainsford refuses to hunt with him, the general makes him his new prey.

Being on the other side of the hunter-hunted relationship is bound to teach Rainsford a lesson. He is finally able to empathize with the animals' fear. Even though he is capable of reasoning, Rainsford is desperate to survive, just like every beast would be. He learns humbleness through his fear and desperation.

At the end, he is able to fight and kill General Zaroff.
