The Eagle (Garuda) is the divine eagle who serves as Lord Vishnu's vahana and is considered a symbol of strength and devotion and freedom.
Elephant in Hinduism is sacred and symbolises wisdom, strength, and royalty. The head of Lord Ganesha is that of the elephant, whereas Airavata is the mount of Lord Indra, and they have these meanings of divinity.
Power, speed, and wealth are associated with horses, as portrayed in the Ashvamedha Yagna and the chariot of Lord Surya.
The cow is referred as 'mother' in Hinduism and carries all sattvic qualities and a nurturing spirit. Sacred cows like Kamadhenu or associations with Lord Krishna make them even more divine in Indian mythology.
Bulls carry strength and devotion and are a part of Lord Shiva. His vahana is Nandi, not just a mount of Lord Shiva, but also his most devoted disciple guarding the gates of Mount Kailash.
Monkeys have an extra-special place because of Lord Hanuman, who devoted his life entire to the service of Lord Rama, as embodied in the Ramayana.
Snakes are usually to be considered sacred because they are associated with the Lord of Snakes, Lord Shiva, and on the other hand, with Sheshnaag, the resting position of Lord Vishnu.
Rats are the vehicles of Lord Ganesha, who highly signifies humility and the ability to control his desires. Indian temples such as Siddhivinayak and Karni Mata display their revered status in rich Indian culture.
These two animals, representing an embodiment of strength and courage, have a dignified reserve as the vahana of Goddess Durga and in the Narasimha Avatar of Lord Vishnu. They symbolise the divine power and protection.
