Since the rabbit and duck are an animal associated with the moon (lunar) since Central Asia, they are always eaten animals in combat scenes and are symbols of darkness like horned animals. The struggle of opposite principles is explained by giving it together with the eagle, the symbol of light. As with other lunar animals, the rabbit and duck are symbols of abundance.

The fact that the fox is among the substances in the Altaians and Yakuts indicates that it was the ancestor symbol in ancient times. The fox symbolized good luck, longevity and cunning in China. It was known as a deceitful and cunning animal in the Turks. In the tiles found in the Kubadabad Palace, many animal figures resembling the fox and the wild dog with an unidentified long ear and a thin body can be found.

In some compositions, it is seen that the rabbit figure is depicted as a game animal like a duck. It manifests itself in tombstones and combat scenes. It is also seen in the Seljuk civil and religious works through the Turkish Animal Calendar.

Subjects were processed live, in motion. Running and struggling animals were depicted with Rumi motifs, undergoing extreme stylization.
