Farm animals have been integral to human societies for millennia, and their symbolism varies widely across different cultures. For instance, the rooster is often seen as a symbol of vigilance and the heralding of a new day. In Chinese culture, the rooster is one of the twelve zodiac animals and is associated with punctuality and fidelity. Similarly, in many European traditions, the rooster is a symbol of courage and pride.

Cows hold a particularly sacred place in Hindu culture, where they are revered as symbols of life and sustenance. The cow is considered a maternal figure, embodying selfless giving and nurturing. In contrast, in Western cultures, cows are often associated with agricultural prosperity and rural life.

Pigs, despite their sometimes negative connotations in certain cultures, are viewed positively in others. In Chinese culture, the pig is one of the zodiac signs and symbolizes wealth, honesty, and general prosperity. In ancient Celtic traditions, pigs were seen as symbols of abundance and fertility.

Sheep are often associated with innocence and purity, particularly in Christian symbolism where they represent the faithful flock under the guidance of a shepherd. In other traditions, such as in ancient Greek culture, sheep were linked to wealth and pastoral life.
