Conflict Man vs. Nature
"Bleak darkness was blacking out the sea and jungle when Rainsford sighted the light" pg. 16
Man vs. Nature means a character has a problem with some natural happening. Rainsford is first placed against the sea when the ship wrecks. Then he faces the jungle along with all the elements within it.Foreshadowing
"That's odd. It must have been a fairly large animal too." - Rainsford pg. 15
Foreshadowing are hints the author give you about something that is going to happened later. In this story Rainsford hears a sceram of an animal that he has never heard before which should be impossible since he has hunted every game known to man, later we find out that the scream wasn't an animal but a human...although to the who's hunting the human the point is discussable.
