    reasoning
    Both entities describe the same general group of individuals: 'hunters' (source) or 'whalemen' (candidate). Their types, 'profession_group' and 'group_of_people', are synonymous in this context. The source's description of their 'fortitude shaken' by Moby Dick aligns perfectly with the candidate's description of 'experienced hunters of whales who developed superstitions about Moby Dick, believing him to be ubiquitous and immortal'. The properties and relationships, though not identical, describe the same collective experience and beliefs of whalemen regarding Moby Dick and other whales.
