After the
humans are gone, the animals begin establishing their societyon their
terms. They destroy the humans' tools of oppression like whips and reins, rename the farm , and
make rules, like no wearing clothes and no sleeping in the
house. In fact, they decide to turn the farmhouse into a museum. The pigs take things
a step further and create Seven Commandments for Animalism, which they paint on the wall for all
to see.
Then, just as quickly as the animals start setting up a new regime,
we see cracks in their communist paradise. The pigs, who have established themselves as the
ruling class, milk the cows. When the other animals ask what they're going to do with the
milk"they" most likely referring to all of the animalsthe pigs
suggest that they'll mix it into the animals' mash. In actuality, the pigs (presumably) drink
the milk themselves, setting the stage for conflict to come.
