Horns of stag, eyes of reptile, scales of fish, ears of bull, whiskers of cat, claws of eagle and footpads of tiger -- this is a dragon, a sacred creature in Chinese mythology.

And they exist in real life too -- in dragon dances. The Chinese have performed dragon dances since ancient times on important occasions such as the Spring Festival, or Chinese New Year.
