The purpose of this paper is to show that Margaret Atwood has created unique animal symbol in Surfacing (1972). First of all, it must be noted that she defines Canadian animal symbol in Survival (1972), comparing it with English and American ones. We see that the symbol signifies unity between the concept of 'victims' and Canadian psychological trait because Atwood insists that Canadian animal stories present animals as victims. Secondly, we consider the way animals are depicted in Surfacing on the basis of her conception. Then, we find that the protagonist's metamorphosis has a close relation to the original symbol that Atwood creates. We arrive at the conclusion that the metamorphosis into an animal brings about a "hope" of preserving Canadian identity.
