Ox
     I picked the animal ox because it starts with the letter O. There are two reasons to explain the oxen’s significance. The first one is that the ox is one of the animals that has a year in the zodiac. One of the oxen’s years is 1997. The second one is that oxen helped farmers by plowing and irrigating their crops. The ox was often called "Beast of the Burden". I never knew the ox was so important.
