<span>Boxer - the workhorse. He believes things will get better if he works harder and trusts the pig leadership will help him. He is considered the metaphor for the common people in Russia whom believed the Revolution and overthrow of the Russian monarchy would help them. They are trusting and easily manipulated like Boxer.
