Every country has her totem. China is Dragon, England is Lion, USA is eagle, Russia is polar bear, Germany is wolf and India is elephant.
The point is we use a imaginative animal as our totem. In old time, North China uses Dragon as their totem, dragon isn't a real animal, it is a combination of different really animal on the land and in the water. South China uses Phoenix as their totem, phoenix is also an imaginative bird, it is a combination of different birds.While other nations, as mentioned before, they all use real animal as their totem, except Sweden use Griffin, and welse uses Red dragon. Don't know the reason, but it seems these three nations do like some imaginations. Maybe they pursue perfection, maybe they are not practical. I will try to find out.
