Question

What actions of the gentleman of the jungle force the man to take the extreme step

Answer 1

Answer:

He builds a new hut and the animals occupy it. Immediately the man burns down the hut and the animals are killed. Thus the man saves himself by outwitting the animals. "The Gentleman of Jungle' is the story by Jomo Kenyatta.

Answer 2

Gentlemen of the Jungle is an indictment of European colonialism and a warning to Kenyatta's fellow citizens of Africa against naively opening their metaphorical door to outsiders bearing flowers.
In his story, the animals, ironically given their history on the continent, portray the European imperialists who will slowly but surely insinuate themselves into Africa only to impose harsh, alien policies intended to subjugate the indigenous peoples and exploit their lands.
