Rabbit

In Chinese culture, it was said that the Jade Emperor, which is the emperor of heaven in Chinese folklore, called the animals of China to a race, and the first twelve would earn a spot in the calendar system. The rabbit won a spot, being one of the fastest animals and by hopping on rocks and logs to cross a river. In Rabbit, you can hear the rabbit hopping from stone to stone before he finally reaches the other end of the river.
