• Naru : I don't know that this thing can be killed.

  Taabe : If it bleeds, we can kill it.

• Itsee : We have him.

  Naru : No. He has us.

• [to the French trapper she's ensnared as a trap for the Predator] 

  Naru : You bled my brother. So now you bleed. You think that I am not a hunter like you. That I am not a threat. That is what makes me dangerous. You can't see that I'm killing you. And it won't either.

• Naru : It knows how to hunt. But I know how to survive.

• Sumu (Chief Wife) : My girl, you are good at so many things. Why do you want to hunt?

  Naru : Because you all think I can't.

• Naru : This is as far as you go. No more. This is it.

• Naru : Taabe, this morning in the sky, I saw a sign. The thunderbird. I've been practicing. It's time. I'm ready for my kühtaamia.

  Taabe : You really think you're ready? You wanna hunt something that's hunting you?

• Naru : [to Sarii]  Next time, you're cooking.

• Naru : No. It doesn't want bait. It doesn't hunt that way.

• Taabe : [shoots the falcon]  You were sleeping.

  Naru : I was waiting for it to circle back. Now you're gonna have to cross the river to get it. Don't get your bowstring wet.

• Naru : Whatever did this, I can kill it.

• Itsee : You could get shot sneaking up like that.

  Naru : Who's sneaking?

  Wasape : Who invited you? We won't be gone long enough to need a cook.

• Naru : I saw it.

  Wasape : Saw what?

  Naru : I saw that left those tracks.

  Wasape : The bear?

  Naru : There was a bear, but there was something else, and it was huge. I couldn't see it until it was covered in blood, but it looked like-- like a mupitsl.

  Wasape : Your monster from a children's story?

  Naru : It fought and killed a bear with its hands, easily.

  Ania : How come it didn't kill you?

• Raphael : You should be helping us. I think this creature is a hunter, looking for the strongest beast. What do you know? It killed your whole party.

  Naru : No. It didn't kill everyone.

  Raphael : If you were smart, you'd help us.

• Taabe : Naru, we don't need the torches. They'll scare the cat. We're in its hunting grounds. Why'd you come back?

  Naru : I found tracks, and they were huge.

  Taabe : I'm not frightened by a bear.

  Naru : I don't think it was a bear. I don't know what it was. I've never seen anything like it. It skinned and gutted a snake.

  Taabe : Well, whatever it was, we're in the cat's den now. We have to deal with it first.
