Explanation:

- He considers them to be 'the most Dangerous Men' for it and himself as superior to them.
- He is predatory in nature and lives lavishly in his luxurious mansion with all kinds of top notch facilities and fancies.
- Although initially Rainsford agrees with the passion for hunting, he did not realize that the General hunt humans and was taken aback when he found out.
