I m atheist/agnostic but I m still fascinated by Religion, mainly Chritianity, and I m baffled about this.

If man, and woman was banished from the Garden of Eden, because they ate the forbidden fruit from the Tree of Knowledge, why are there animals here too? Did they get banished too?

Excuse my LACK of knowledge about Religion, I just started looking into things.

Iscariot,

According to tradition, because man (Adam and Eve) had been given dominion over animals, they (the animals) left the Garden of Eden with them (Adam and Eve).
