Mar. 28 - Tibetan antelope has entered the highly competitive race to be
selected as the animal emblem of the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games.
The protected animal is seen as fully reflecting the spirit of the
Olympics, and will help create "a green, people's and scientific" Olympic
Games, officials and experts argued yesterday as fierce debate rages
nationwide.
Insiders say the emblem may be composed of two or three images.
The Tibetan antelope is much more sporty than other recommended animals
reflecting 'higher, faster and stronger' - the spirit of the Olympics.
