- [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.
- Taabe: It's time, Naru. Your kühtaamia. When the lion comes, you tell that thing, "This is far as you go. No more. This is it."
- 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?
- Paaka: It won't matter how sharp it is if you're too afraid to use it. You think you're ready? You've never faced a lion. Its mouth full of teeth like arrows, ready to tear your flesh and crush your bones. When your brother comes back, he and I will find the lion and kill it.
- [gets pounced on by the mountain lion]
- 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.
