He has been stung by a scorpion. The doctor knows Kino will not be able to pay him. To him, the natives or the little Indians are nothing more than animals. However, after the discovery of the Pearl of the World, the doctor suddenly becomes concerned about Coyotitos health. He even goes to Kinos brush house. He knows that Kino is able to pay him now. The second moral value is we should not exploit the poor. The priest is a good example of someone who exploits the poor.
