Abstract
It is impossible for created beings in the world to function independently of each other. Among them, the relationship between humans and non-human beings has an inseparable bond. During the Sangam age, the relationship between humans and animals was more prevalent than between human beings. Such contact led human beings to think of animals as their relations. The Sangam literature itself bears testimony to the fact that these animals became an endless path in the journey of life of the ancient peoples. This study is intended to show the present and future people the relationship that arose in the state of helping the human race and the life of the animals, and the way in which people regarded themselves as family relations because of their superior feelings of love, affection, sharing, and warmth.
