History of the Chinese ZodiacBuddhism
Connection with nature and belief in animal protectors
Story: Buddha decided to call the animals on earth, but only 12 came
Each animal was assigned a year on the cycle; persons born into that year would acquire the personality traits assigned to that year
They were put in a race to decide the order of the cycle
