Admiring Boxer

While reading animal farm, it is very clear that the way the animals act changes as they become more independent. For some, this change is in attitude or work ethic; this is very negative towards the rest of the group that are actually pulling their own weight. Although most of the animals have changed their ways, one animal remains a hard worker and a loyal group member. This is Boxer. Boxer is a magnificent steed who easily can out muscle or out intimidate anyone in the group, but instead he uses his profound strength to lighten the load for the other animals. Many animals take advantage of this great work ethic, putting less work in of their own. Over time I hope that Boxer will stand up for himself and others who are working their very hardest so that animal farm can get stronger. Because you are only as strong as your weakest link, all the animals should put in a little more effort to be like Boxer. this little boost in work ethic could change the outcome of animal farm. If the animals actions are left unchanged from the way they are now, it can only result in destruction. If I were to take a guess of what might happen in the book, I would say that boxer will die in some way and that with his death animal farm will collapse. If Boxer does not die then I would assume he will soon be the new person in charge and animal farm will strive.
