    George Orwell’s Animal Farm contains a particular character named Napoleon, a fierce-looking Berkshire boar. Napoleon is conniving, a plagiarist and manipulative. At a meeting, when the animals had to make a decision, Orwell showed Napoleon’s first conniving scheme, “Napoleon stood up and, casting a peculiar sidelong look at Snowball, uttered a high-pitched whimper...dashed straight for Snowball, who only sprang from his place just in time to escape their snapping jaws” (Orwell 39). Here the dogs that Napoleon had raised attacked Snowball. It is apparent that Napoleon took these dogs to use them for what he needed, and at this time he needed to get Snowball out of the way. This action of attacking Snowball was very harmful, he only just barely…

    Imagine an animal’s feeling of panic and fear as it is about to be killed by a hunter or the isolation experienced as an animal sits in a laboratory, separated from its family and natural habitat, waiting to be harmed by harsh testing methods. Imagine the frightened state of a mother or father watching their innocent baby being captured. After considering the brutality towards animals in these scenarios, take into consideration the health benefits humans receive from different parts of these animals. Imagine health risks avoided through testing on animals first instead of on humans. Does human benefit justify the harm and killing of animals? Linda Hasselstrom’s essay “The Cow Versus The Animal Rights Activist” and Tom Regan’s “Animal Rights, Human Wrongs” argue this question through analysis of the reason for killing animals, the method in which they are killed, and the morality of the killing of animals.…

    Napoleon is a large manipulative pig that emerges as the leader of Animal Farm after the rebellion against the humans. Napoleon can be compared to Joseph Stalin because he uses his nine attack dogs to intimidate the other animals and control his power. Napoleon can be characterized as relentless because he stops at nothing to ensure his success. In fact, he is willing to force harsh rations among the animals and make them work extremely hard because he wants the farm to be successful even if it costs the lives of others. Through his harsh actions, he not only instills fear into the animals, but also reveals his true character in that he is a selfish pig that only cares about himself.…
