Description Inspired by George Orwell's " Animal Farm".
Seven animal generations after Orwell's pigs shook hands with their former masters Animal Farm has become Animal Pharmaceuticals - a giant multi-national conglomerate of farms, firms and factories. At the edge of the known world is a forgotten outpost - a small laboratory. In it, the occupants - a pig, sheep and horse - work tirelessly testing products and doing themselves what was done to them. Their life of experimentation is interrupted by notice of an impending visit from HQ, and the animals ready themselves for just reward.
