Accepted Answer

# Brief Explanations:
Whitney's remarks, such as "Not for the jaguar" and "Perhaps the jaguar does" (referring to caring about its feelings), contrast with Rainsford's dismissive attitude ("Who cares how a jaguar feels?"; "Bah! They've no understanding"). This contrast highlights Rainsford's arrogance (thinking Whitney is being "soft" for considering the jaguar's perspective) and lack of sympathy (not caring about the hunted animal's experience). The other options are incorrect: there's no indication of how they became hunters in the text; Whitney shows concern for the jaguar (so the third option is wrong); and Rainsford dismisses philosophy (calling Whitney "not a philosopher"), so the fourth option is wrong.
# Answer:
Whitney’s remarks reveal Rainsford’s arrogance and lack of sympathy.
