Darwin's Dragons - Session 8 - Reading Comprehension answers

In Session 8 of "Darwin's Dragons," Covington has been on the island for three days, awaking on the fourth.

Farthing persuades him to follow her by growling, grabbing his clothes, staring, and howling. Covington sacrifices his fiddle case to create light for visibility.
