Answer:

Normally working animals are domesticated and ruled by a master, a domesticator (tamer), to perform basic and important functions on a farm, for example. The value used in this context is animal labor in exchange for food. It is not so much a contrast to the story told by Napoleon and the pigs, since the animals of that particular farm also performed functions on the farm through domestication. The only thing is that in this case, who rules them is a pig, also an animal, but very respected, to whom the other animals lent him submission. That's about a strong relationship of dependency between animal and owner.

Answer:

Conflicting values are demonstrated between two different groups in Animal Farm. First, the farm animals value hard work. This is shown by them working late and working long hours at the request of the pigs. Napoleon and the pigs, however, sleep late daily. Furthermore, the farm animals value equality. This differs from the values of Napoleon and the other pigs. Instead of equality, they value only gaining power and maintaining their own privilege, which is demonstrated by their taking extra milk and sleeping in beds.
