The Chinese zodiac contains twelve animals. It is said that a long time ago when the Chinese people were inventing their
calendar, twelve animals fought over which one would be the first in the cycle. The gods held a competition to make this
decision. The competition was to be held at the river, and whichever animal could cross the river first would be the first
animal in the cycle. Supposedly, the rat secretly rode on the ox and quickly jumped off of the ox's backwhen they reached
the other side of the river. This allowed the rat to be named the first animal in the cycle. The ox was therefore the second
to cross the finish line and the pig was last.
