The 12 animals of the Chinese zodiac are the mouse, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, sheep, monkey, chicken, dog and pig. These 12 animals are lined in sequence and repeat every 12 years. So if you know the animal of a certain year, you can also figure out other years. For example, the animal of 2008 is mouse, so that of 2009 is ox.
