Question

2. What minor rebellion happens among the animals, and how does Napoleon deal with it?

Answer 1

Napoleon acts swiftly by ordering the hens' food rations to be stopped and decrees that any animal caught giving the hens food will be punished by death. The hens hold out for five days until they eventually capitulate and return to their nesting boxes. Over the course of the five days, nine hens die of starvation.
