Why do schools have mascots?I’m going to say that probably because mascots are like school identity and give kids a way to pride themselves on their mascots. It also forces kids to like other kids of the same mascot like a team. It helps to also get a together feeling and have more behavior values to associate to.
Like my school mascot is a fox and it makes us better associate with each other as a fox. It also makes us more wise ! Like a fox.
Now a days kids just go to school games and root for their own mascot teams.

Mascotte in French literally means lucky charm.
Is it good to know! Nice mama but to have luck why choose foxes or panthers or wildcats? Maybe I can google .
My guess is that animals are chosen to portray a particular character – as you say in your post – like cleverness in a fox, or stealth in a wildcat, or usually some predator. Good idea to google it.
