The son of a zookeeper, Pi Patel has an encyclopedic knowledge of animal behavior and a fervent love of stories.

Pi finds himself alone in a lifeboat, his only companions a hyena, an orangutan, a wounded zebra, and Richard Parker, a 450-pound Bengal tiger.

When they finally reach the coast of Mexico, Richard Parker flees to the jungle, never to be seen again.
