The Battles

In the novel Animal Farm, the animals had to fight against the humans on more than one occasion.

The first battle was The Rebellion. The Rebellion took place when Mr. Jones started neglecting his animals more than usual. The animals had gone for a full day and a half unfed and decided to go ahead with Old Major's plans. Old Major had prophesied a Rebellion of the animals against the humans. The animals first broke into the store shed. When the animals did so, they woke up Mr. Jones who, with his men, came into the shed with whips. At this, the animals started to butt and kick there tormentors. Finding themselves overwhelmed, the humans fled from the seen.

The second battle was The Battle of the Cowshed. In this battle snowball had devised a plan of attack. He had the attack set into three waves. The first wave was all the winged animals and a few of the pigs who ran out and pecked or kicked the humans. This wave ran off towards the farm when the fight got to be to much. The humans then ran towards the farm and then ran into the second wave. The second wave consisted of the rest of the pigs, Boxer, clover, the cows and Benjamin.
