The characters are living beings including humans and animals in the wild. The latter too are endowed with the reason and emotions of human beings. Thereby they come to represent types of human nature and behavior and one can draw morals from the stories.
Hitopadesha
Hitopadesha (Good Counsel) is an 11-12th century Sanskrit collection of stories, written by Narayana Pandit, in four chapters instead of five as in the Panchatantra on which it is based. Each chapter contains a string of stories, one emerging from the other, with each designed to render counsel on ethical worldly-wise conduct.
