The animals represented in the Chinese New Year Zodiac include: Rat Ox Tiger Rabbit Dragon Snake Horse Ram Monkey Rooster Dog Pig These are all in order - rat as the first animal of the Chinese Zodiac, and Pig as the last. This Chinese New Year (2009), will be the year of the Ox. Last year, obviously, was the year of the Rat.

Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, Pig.
One of the most popular myths about the origin of the 12 signs is that the Lord Buddha called all the animals to come to him before departing this earth. Only 12 animals came, and as a reward he named a lunar year after each according to the order in which it arrived. The Rat was the first to get there, crossing the final river on the back of the Ox and jumping down in front. Following them were the Tiger, Rabbit (Hare), Dragon, Snake, Horse, Sheep (Goat, Ram), Monkey, Rooster (Cock), Dog, and Boar (Pig).
