The man states that “[his] duty was to kill the snake.” When the man uses the word “duty” it gives a sense that there are no other options and that it’s imperative that he does it.

There is many arguments covering the topic regarding if man is born like a savage or if it is society that is polluting mankind.

One portion of the land is the same as the next, for he is a stranger who comes in the night and takes from the land whatever he needs.

Just thinking about the skinning of an animal terrifies me, but it saddens me more to know that there are people in the world that can kill animals just for the profit that it can bring to them. When an animal is captured, it is put through unbelievable pain. It sometimes drives the animal to tear through its own flesh and bone, sometimes the animal even loose teeth because they bite on the trap. Sometimes the animals are left suffering for hours before the hunters show up to kill the animal by stumping on the animal. This type of animal cruelty is legal for people with a license to hunt, but for those who are not legalized hunters can face many years in prison and be fined thousands of dollars.
Simon’s death in the novel Lord of the Flies is the most tragic death of the story. For one thing, if the boys weren’t so riled up over the pig kill, screaming “kill the beast! Cut his throat! Spill his blood,” when Simon came out of the forest with news of the pilot, they would have learned that there was no beast on the mountain. This means that the fear of the beast on the mountain could’ve been eliminated, which was keeping them from making the signal fire on the highest part of the island.
