Story: I want the correct story for the zodiac animals A long time ago, Buddha held a contest to decide the names of the Chinese calendar years all the animals were invited to the river race. The clever rat rode on the ox's back; then it jumped to the shore first!
Because the strong ox was also simple and trusting, it fell for the rats trick. By offering the rat a ride, the ox lost first place in the twelve year calendar cycle.
The current was strong, so the tiger had to swim very hard to make it across the river to appear before the Buddha. The panting tiger reached the shore just after the ox, taking the third spot in the calendar cycle.
The rabbit was too small to against the river's strong current, across the water by hopping from stone to stone. But the rabbit slipped. Luckily it saw a log floating past and was able to grab onto it the rabbit hopped from the log to the shore to reach Buddha fourth.
The dragon came flying in fifth. Buddha was surprised that the magical beast was not first, so the dragon explained his delay first the dragon stopped to helped the creatures and people of the world by making it rain. Then the dragon saw the rabbit cling to a log, so it paused to push the helpless animal to shore with a mighty puff of breath.
The sound of galloping hooves announced the arrival of the horse. But the crafty snake was hidden under the horses hoof. It quickly slithered out to take sixth place in the twelve year cycle.
The horse was frightened by the sudden appearance of the snake, causing it to fall back. But the horse quickly recovered from its fear and galloped to Buddha to claim seventh place.
The sheep, the monkey, and the rooster arrived together. The three animals used teamwork to cross the river. The sheep cleared the weeds that blocked the trio's way. So the Buddha granted the sheep eighth place.
Buddha granted the monkey ninth place. The monkey helped his friends the goat and the rooster cross the river by tugging and pulling on the raft they found.
Buddha awarded the rooster tenth place in the calendar cycle. The rooster was responsible for finding the raft that carried his friends- the goat and the monkey- across the river.
The dog found the cool, fresh water of the river distracting. In fact, the river was so inviting that the dog decided to take a bath and a quick swim before crossing to the finish! Thus, although a very good swimmer, the dog came in eleventh place.
The pig started the race strong, but it became hungry and tired. So the pig stopped for a bite to eat and a nap! But the pig was lucky enough to wake up in time to reach the Buddha, taking the last place in the twelve year calendar.

Story: I want the correct story for the zodiac animals
The twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac – or shengxiao as they are known in Mandarin – represent the qualities and attributes of the people born in a certain year. But how did the rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, rooster, dog, and boar come to typify the years, and how did they achieve their rank from first to twelfth?

The legend is an interesting one. Each Chinese zodiac sign and the order they rank in was decided by the mythical Jade Emperor and his favourite creature, the rat. When the task of choosing the zodiac animals fell to the Emperor, he asked the rat to help him. The resourceful rat decided that the best way would be to arrange a race across the river. The order in which the animals arrived would decide who would be second, third, fourth, and so on.

The rat put the word out across the kingdom, and the first creature to appear on the riverbank was the cat. The pair enlisted the help of the ox, who was resting nearby, and asked him to ferry them across the river. A kind old soul, the ox agreed, but just as they set off, the rat pushed the cat into the river. Hating water, the cat managed to get out and scurried away to dry off.

Thus, the ox was the second creature to reach the opposite shore. The strong tiger came next, followed by agile rabbit who hopped from stone to stone and floating log. The dragon was hot on the rabbits heels, and only came in fifth because he stopped to make rain and then help the rabbit with a gust of wind. The horse galloped effortlessly across the river, but was pipped to sixth place by the wily snake who was hiding on his hoof. The sheep, monkey, and rooster arrived together on a raft, taking eighth, ninth, and 10th places respectively. The dog was late because he had stopped for a wash in the river, and the pig had been sleeping, so took 12th place. The poor cat finally dragged himself over to the other side, but it was too late. His anger at the rat has lasted through the ages, and they are still mortal enemies.

There are many myths and legends about the Chinese zodiac animals, but this one is certainly the best loved.
