It is said that in ancient times, the world was full of chaos and various monsters were running amok, causing great harm to humans and other animals. The tiger, with its extraordinary strength and courage, fought bravely against these monsters. It repeatedly risked its life to protect the peace of the forest and the safety of other creatures. Its heroic deeds spread far and wide, being heard by the God of Heaven Jade Emperor. When the Jade Emperor was selecting the twelve zodiac signs, considering the tiger’s outstanding contributions and its status as a symbol of power, he included the tiger in the zodiac list.

As for why the tiger was ranked third, an explanation related to the traditional Chinese time-keeping method offers an interesting perspective. In the twelve time slots cycle, the third period Yin from nowadays 03:00 to 05:00 is a time when tiger is most ferocious and often come out to forage and patrol their territories. Ancient people, based on the habits of tiger, associated it with the period of Yin, and in the order of the zodiac signs, the tiger was thus ranked the third.
