Animal Metaphor	comment	Sometimes an animal (or two animals) can symbolize a character or characters (humans or anthropomorphized animals) in a work. If the characters are human, these animals will generally be their pets, but in works of fantasy it's not uncommon for the characters to be transformed into animals and have to work together to return to safety and human form, learning more about each other along the way. The most common form of this trope is the portrayal of two animals whose relationship mirrors or symbolizes the relationship between their owners. Can be case of Truth in Television in that pets' behaviour tends to reflect their masters' moods. Related to What Do You Mean, It's Not Symbolic?. Subtrope of Animal Motifs. Supertrope to Caged Bird Metaphor.

Animal Metaphor / int_1869a077	comment	In the new Samurai Jack season, the subplot for one episode is about a lone white wolf encountering three alien tigers and fighting them. Once the battle was over, it's become a bloody massacre with all three tigers dead and the wolf just barely still alive. It's parallel to Jack trying to evade the Daughters of Aku before killing one of them and passing out from blood loss.

Animal Metaphor / int_1cc09117	comment	Bleach: Yoruichi and Soi Fon are symbolized by the cat and the hornet respectively. Yoruichi's personality is playful, and somewhat fickle, much like a cat's; in addition to her unexplained ability to actually turn into one, at will. Whereas Soi Fon, who's name literally means "break/broken hornet", has a personality befitting her namesake; being that she's slow to anger, yet deadly when provoked. This is also reflected in her zanpakuto, Suzumebachi, which is named after the asian hornet. The chapter in which they fight is even titled "Cat and Hornet". Harribel was introduced as a villain she's a damsel in distress in the final arc. In her battle with Hitsugaya, the battle was heavily themed on dragons and sharks, even being commented on by the characters during the fight. Hitsugaya's power partially transforms him into an ice dragon and Harribel's nature is that of a shark. Both of them rely heavily on the amount of water in the atmosphere for their battle, but their fight consists of seeing who will soar and who will sink, with the observations being it's good when the shark sinks, but the dragon's in trouble when it happens to him, whereas the dragon prefers to soar, and that's trouble for the shark.

Kanchome laughs at this and says that he'd rather be cool like a lion. This comes to prominence during a battle later, when Folgore reveals his backstory as a "lion man" who would fiercely attack anyone and scared away even those he wanted to protect. After watching a TV show about hippos, he realized that while hippos look goofy and are normally docile, they can even overcome lions when they need to. Kanchome, who was drunk on power to the point where he was brutally torturing his enemies and even terrifying his own allies, then realized what Folgore meant.

In the very first episode, the Starks find a dire wolf that died killing a stag to provide for its children. Given that the first season is entirely based around the Stark and Baratheon households accidentally destroying each other and themselves, the symbolism can be seen as a bit heavy-handed.

It's doubly symbolic given Maris' constant association with coldness and ice throughout the series. Invoked and parodied in another episode when Eddie gets depressed. A pet psychiatrist claims that his depression is probably being caused by the behaviour of one of the humans he sees regularly, and encourages Martin, Niles, Frasier and Daphne to act cheerful around him. Roz joins the others and they attempt to analyze themselves to discover the root of the problem. They discover that they're all in some way depressed, but then Eddie finds his favourite toy and cheers up. They joke about how they were following his lead, but their problems can't be solved by a cheap treat, only to perk up when Daphne's cookies finish baking.
