    In Joseph Bruchac's The Snapping Turtle, Sonny (protagonist) lives in a rural area with his grandparents. The grandfather is part Native American, and makes sure Sonny learns important values from his heritage. is trying to hunt a Snapping Turtle. On his way to catching the turtle, he sees a group of pre-teens and tries to avoid them, remarking on how he tends to avoid that kind of people as they don't seem to care about nature like his family does. He also says how he would never fit in among them as they would make him participate of a ritual involving tying him up and burning his toes, and calling him names. Furthermore, he mentions how these youngsters were noisier than his grandpa and himself, scaring game away.

    We can infer that these kids acquired these values at home or somewhere else in the city, where adapting to nature is not a vital skill anymore.
