They flung themselves upon their tormentors, shocking them as they had never seen the animals behave this way, it frightened them immensely. They soon gave up and Mrs.Jones took their belongings and ran. The animals were left in a state of shock and awe. Then capered in joy when they realized that they were free.

- The organizing and teaching fell upon the pigs, who were considered the cleverest of the animals. The two young boars that truly took charge were, Napoleon, a rather fierce looking Berkshire boar who had a reputation for getting his own way, and Snowball, a more vivacious pig than Napoleon, inventive, quick in speech, and not considered to have the same depth of character.
