The two however are forced to co-exist because they need each other in the lonely Pacific Ocean. Yann Martel describes the hunger pangs that the two go through together and the bitter cold at night that makes them more than just friends. Presence of the tiger is a symbol of life for the boy who has lost everything that he was previously blessed with.
