The fact that the animals regularly just ‘read over the seven commandments’ shows the importance of the commandments to the animals‚ and the amount of respect they have for them. The pigs are definitely the most intelligent of the animals‚ and they use this intelligence to manipulate and take advantage of the other animals on the farm by changing the rules and commandments to suit themselves‚ no matter the cost and discomfort of the other animals.
