Abstract
The central orientation of this paper revolves round the matrix of ecological concern in the select short stories of Ruskin Bond. Human activities have a greater impact on ecology due to structural developments, industrialization, various technological advancement and other reasons. These activities have raised serious ecological concerns across the globe. Deforestation is one such human activity that makes the animals and birds homeless and they are forced to seek shelter elsewhere, sometimes in grasslands and sometimes in human habitations. This paper is an attempt to highlight the ecological problems raised by Ruskin Bond in the short stories ‘The Leopard’ and ‘Bird Life in the City’. Bond is an eminent Indian writer in English best known for his portrayal of nature and its elements in a realistic way capturing its minute details. His works eloquently emphasize the preservation of environment and a harmony with nature. This paper aims to analyse his style of presenting ecological problems in his literary oeuvre.
