Will there be wolves or bats in the Spring Festival New Year pictures?

Bats appear in Spring Festival pictures.

Spring Festival pictures are mostly all kinds of good wishes. Generally speaking, they are happiness, longevity and good luck. Bats often appear in New Year pictures, because "bat" is homophonic with "blessing". Generally, it is a New Year picture of a fat doll riding a bat with various mascots.

For example, Five Blessingg's birthday celebration is a traditional auspicious pattern widely circulated among the people in China. It usually consists of five bats around Changshou or peaches, which means more happiness and longevity. "Bat" and "Fu" are homophonic, so five bats stand for "Five Blessingg". There are five bats above this New Year picture and peaches below. Bergamot is homophonic for "longevity", and the dolls and pomegranates in New Year pictures imply many children and many blessings.
