Michel Mouckomey Period 1 The Rattler Essay “The Rattler” describes the encounter of a man and a rattle snake in a desolate desert shortly after sunset. The two main characters that are the only characters in this situation, each must decide how to approach one another. Although the man would be considered in the snake’s boundaries, he chooses to take the snake’s life for the sake of people at the ranch. The reader soon distinguishes the good intentions of the man as breaking boundaries or survival of the fittest. Through descriptions of the chivalrous snake, the conflicted man and the twilit setting, the author creates sympathy for the rattler and feelings of anger, pity, and disappointment for the man.
Then the general saw the driftwood and seaweed Rainsford had used to cover the large ditch he’d dug. A tap from his foot assured the general that the ground was solid. Rainsford was certain the Cossack man was smiling in the darkness. It was then that the general took the fatal step. The cover used for the ditch was solid to the touch, but would not be able to bear the weight of a full grown man.
The boys don’t see it that way though; they think he’s a great Chief because he takes them hunting. “He’s a proper Chief, isn’t he?” “He’s going to take us hunting.” (Golding, 176) This proves that none of them have any common sense anymore, they don’t care about survival. All they care about is hunting. Jacks tribe having no order has 3 terrible outcomes, Piggy’s death, Simon’s death, and the attempted murder of Ralph. All of it is chaos.
Hera proposed that in order for Hercules to be forgiven he is to perform 12 labors.

His second labor was a treacherous one because he had to destroy the multi headed Hydra. The Hydra is a snake that regenerates heads after you slice one off.
With over 1m wild alligators in Florida versus a human population of 17m humans, there’s lots of opportunity for conflict. The beasts can grow to 12ft and their lethargic appearance has misled many a startled holidaymaker, within a flash they can snap their jaws and even run up to 30m.p.h. There are actually Gator Hunters operating in Florida to deal with the problematic reptiles. Obviously the animals know no boundaries but they do not seek human attacks and they usually try to avoid us, however sometimes things go wrong. Pestering, tormenting and throwing food to gators is usually the root cause.
Kumokums story starts with him sitting down beside Tule Lake and he was interested in Tule Lake because that's all there was, Tule Lake.

He piled it into a hill in front of him and patted it down. As he patted it began to spread beneath his hand, and out around him, until Tule Lake was completely surrounded by earth and he was left there standing on an island.

If he’d been fourteen or fifteen, he would have simply gone on without me” (Krakauer 109). This quote offers clean evidence of McCandless’ willingness to continue climbing while ignoring the reality that his family was exhausted which was a potential danger.
Perhaps because he reaches rock bottom with Covey, Douglass suddenly finds the strength to resist. Not long after the moment looking at the white sails on the Chesapeake Bay, he resolves that he would rather die than be beaten again. When he stands up to Covey and says so, he discovers something amazing: he doesn't die. And once he resolves to be free at any cost, things start to change. Defeating Covey doesn't make him free in a legal sense, of course, but standing up for himself makes him mentally
