Ecocriticism is a new branch of literature which is grounded in ecology, natural history and environmental studies. Eco is short of ecology, which is concerned with the relationships between living organisms in their natural environment as well as their relationships with that Environment. Selective attention to animals and nature was probably essential to early humans, whose survival depended on their ability to locate resources, track prey and avoid predators. The inclusion of animals and animal imagery in education tends to be motivating and beneficial for the children. In the field of human-animal interactions, a popular theory termed ‘biophilia’ suggests that humans may be hardwired to attend to animals and the natural world. My paper focuses this note with the novels of Russell Hoban’s Turtle Diary, Carolyn Parkhurst’s Dogs of Babel and Yann Martel’s Life of Pi. Keywords: human-animal relationship, anthropomorphism, zoomorphism, cognition, survival etc.
