The origin of mascots:

Mascots, also called cute animals, are the product of primitive human culture. They are the primitive human culture formed by primitive humans in their struggle with nature. . In this kind of struggle with nature, human beings first focus on survival needs, and in the process of development, they naturally form the instinctive concept of seeking good luck and avoiding evil. The ancestors of China created dragons, phoenixes, unicorns and other auspicious animals, and gave these things a symbolic content and meaning.

People all hope that their lives can be peaceful and happy, but in real life, they will inevitably encounter some difficulties and setbacks; as the saying goes: Nine out of ten things in life will be unsatisfactory. Therefore, facing the unpredictable future, our ancestors created many symbols to pray for everything to go well, and these longing and pursuit of happiness and beautiful things are now called mascots.
