As it always for the hunter , he was the only fixed point of order in a dark , rain - lashed chaos of the wild . This time , it was different . He was n't hunting some threatening creature , some danger to the flock . Neither was he looking for some fleeing herbivore , some terrified quarry which would make good eating for the Family .

Question: Why would some believe the man is vulnerable ?
Answer: The entire flock is deadIt 's raining out and he 's exposed .The flock has turned on him .There is a creature hunting him exclusively .
