盤點歷屆夏季奧運會吉祥物

Ollie, Syd and Millie - Sydney 2000

"Ollie", a Kookaburra, "Syd", a Platypus; and "Millie", an Echidna, are three native animals chosen as mascots for the Sydney 2000 Games. These Australian animals represent the earth, air and water.

"Ollie": epitomises the Olympic spirit of generosity and universal generosity (from Olympic).

"Syd": represents the environment and captures the vigour and energy of Australia and its people (from Sydney).

"Millie": is a techno-whiz and information guru, with all the facts and figures at her fingertips (from Millennium).

The Organising Committee received hundreds of submissions from artists, children and others from around the world. Matthew Hatton's design was chosen to represent the Olympic mascots for the forthcoming millennium.

澳利、悉德、米利，2000年悉尼奧運會吉祥物。它們是三個澳洲本土動物，分別代表土地、空氣和水。澳利代表了奧林匹克的博大精深；悉德表現了澳洲和澳洲人民的精神與活力；米利代表千禧年。奧組委當年曾收到來自全世界的數以萬計的設計方案，最終選定了馬修·哈頓的設計。
