John's changing relationship with the doe

I don't have an antagonist in my novel.  Instead, my teacher has asked me to explain some ideas about hunting in my novel. 1. Hunt early, eat early.  Hunt late, stand and wait. Which means the earlier you can get out and start hunting the earlier you can start to eat, otherwise you won't get anything to eat. John tracks the deer for 2 days straight, chooses not to kill it for some reason because he felt a connection between himself and the deer, he forms this feeling inside where he has an urge to touch the deer to connect with life and make his grandfather live forever

In robotics we've been learning about mars and how we can build a robot to explore mars, here's a bit I've learnt about mars and how the lander needs to be designed: "Mars can be called the red planet, because of the rusty iron in the ground that makes it look red, Mars has a rocky terrain so the lander will need big wheels so it doesn't get stuck on rocky mountains or even flat terrain with a hot surface so the lander will need to be made out of something that doesn't melt or burn. Mars affects our design because of the rocky terrain, we need it to be bottom heavy so it doesn’t flip over by the extreme rocky terrain the the extreme weather conditions up on mars, it also would need to be bigger than the rocks so it doesn’t topple over and if it flips over we need to have a recovery system to flip up the robot again Our robot also has camera, censors and a claw. The camera for taking photos on mars the censor for detecting moving things and t
