During the meeting, when the littlun with the mulberry coloured birthmark on his face first mentioned the snake-thing or beastie, Ralph declared, "But there isn't a beastie!" Jack then said "Ralph's right of course. There isn't a snake-thing." Unfortunately he then contradicted the impact of this statement by adding "But if there was a snake we'd hunt it and kill it... And we'll look for the snake too---" Ralph protested again, "But there isn't a snake!" To which Jack replied, "We'll make sure when we go hunting." So in effect Jack gave credence to the littlun's story instead of just dismissing it as Ralph had done.

Initially, Jack says they will kill a pig and leave some of the meat for the Beast in the hope the Beast will leave them alone. Then after they kill the pig, he decides to leave the head of the pig as a gift for the Beast.
