Question

What problems did the animals face in the beginning? What work did the pigs do?

Answer 1

After the Rebellion was successful and the animals were in control of the farm, they needed to harvest the hay. However, it was a difficult task as the animals were not adapted to the tools that were required for harvesting. Moreover, they required the animals to stand on their hind legs.

The pigs were the think tanks of the farm and hence did not work at all. They assumed the position of leadership and started to direct and supervise the functioning of the farm.
