Besides the Tibetan Antelope, other candidates include the giant panda, the Chinese tiger, the golden monkey and the red-crowned crane. The Tibetan Antelope lives in Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau at an altitude between 4,000 and 5,500 meters above the sea level. Its speed can reach as fast as 100 kilometers per hour. The announcement of the mascot has been delayed over again for the fierce competition among the candidates of the mascot and the modification of the designs created for those animals. |
