About this listen

Published in Galaxy Science Fiction in October 1953, The Carnivore, by G. A. Morris, is a science fiction short story that explores the impact of mass extinction on humanity. The story is set in a future where the world has been decimated by war, and the remaining human race is isolated on Earth. The narrative follows the last living human, George, as he encounters alien beings who have judged humanity as a whole and are now seeking to understand the world they inhabit. The story is prescient in its themes of survival, technology, and the consequences of human actions.
