Mr. Jones and his men discovered what had happened and start to whip the cows. Filled with anger, animals start attacking people and manage to run them farm. They decide to explore the House of Mr. Jones and are amazed by it. Mollie Mare tries to remain in the House, because there I could see in the mirror, but the rest of the animals tell it by your foolishness. All decide to turn the House into a Museum and established that no animal will live in it, pigs make 10 regulations for all animals. The animals spend the entire summer working on the harvest. Pigs, intelligent as they are, manage to engineer them so that the animals can use tools of human. So all animals involved in accordance with their capabilities, the animals discovered with horror that the pigs have been falling with all the milk and apples. Snitch and explained that the pigs need milk and apples to be able to think well. At the end of the summer, across the country has learned what happened in farm animals.

A dove brings the news that Mr. Jones has managed to enter the farm along with some men. Snow ball prepared the defense and leads an ambush against the men. Like Snow Ball, Boxer fight with courage and human suffer a defeat. Casualties of the animals are reduced to a single sheep, who is buried as a hero. Mollie attracted by a man who brushed her coat and gave sugar was allowed to catch trap. Mollie now pulls his cart. None of the animals once again to pronounce the name of the mare. Cold winter drag animals to build a mill to generate light and be so hot, when Snow Ball finally ends its planes, everyone gathers to decide if they carry out the mill. Snow ball gives a speech and Napoleon responds with a brief speech. Snowball continues speaking and manages to inspire the animals with his description of electric Wonderland. However, just when the animals are prepared to vote, Napoleon made an unknown signal and nine enormous dogs come violently to the stable during the rest of the year, the animals broke the back working, in order to produce enough food and build the mill. The leaders cut rations and animals were not receiving food if not working on Sunday afternoon. But as the leaders had convinced them that he already did not work for Mr. Jones but self-serving, animals accepted readily in extra work. Boxer was the work of three horses without complaining. The farm still needed some items not produced, steel, nails etc. Napoleon announced that he had hired a human solicitor, to help him in the task of trade on behalf of farm animals. The pigs began to live in the farm house and it was rumored that they were even sleeping in beds. This constituted a violation of the seven commandments. But when Mare asked to Burro to read him the commandment, both discovered that now said thus: "no animal will sleep in a bed with sheets". During the winter, the animals dedicated themselves to rebuild the mill but as had idea how build the mill fell, Napoleon blame snowball and says that at night he sabotaged the mill. Napoleon has sold wood to the neighboring farm but when discovered that the check was a fake declares war and joins another neighboring farm. Shortly after, the pigs discover a box of alcohol in the cellar of the House. That night, the animals heard a great noise that comes from the House, followed by a terrible fight. The next morning, pigs appear with reddened eyes and whisper it to everyone that it is possible that comrade Napoleon is dying. But Napoleon is already recovered in the night. The next night, some of the animals discovered that pigs get drunk in violation of another law of the commandments of the animals. One day; Boxer begins to lose its forces and collapses as he pulled a rock. Other animals ran in search of Soplon, while Benjamin and Clover remained with his friend. Pigs announce that they will do the necessary for taking Boxer to a human hospital, but when the cart arrives, Benjamin lee sign which is attached to this and announces that Boxer will be sent to a factory of glue where it will be massacred. Animals panic and shout you to Boxer that escape. Listen to how this kick inside the box, but no longer has forces to leave. Soon after, Soplon announces that the doctors failed to save his life to Boxer: died at the hospital. Snitch says he was next to Boxer in hospital and considered that it was one of the most touching scenes of his life. Boxer died, presumably happy to work for farm animals. Years later. Most of the animals had aged and died. Few recalled the days leading up to the rebellion. The animals built a new mill that used not to generate electricity but for grinding corn, something much more profitable. The farm seems richer, but only lives well dogs and pigs. One day, pigs invited to their neighboring humans to inspect farm animals. The farmers praised the pigs and told them that they very much regretted the misunderstandings of the past. Other animals, led by Clover, saw a window to how humans and Napoleon gave each other. Pigs and humans continued their card game while other animals moved away from the window. But, shortly after, the sounds of a fight led them to take a look back through the window. Napoleon and the human had played the ACE of swords at the same time and each accused the other of cheating. Animals, which were still looking out the window, they realized that if they cast him a look at the whole scene that unfolded inside the House, was no longer possible to distinguish who were pigs and humans who were.
