[ 6 picks ] animal farm

not that i've read the book since high school (middle school?). but i have been gathering up old macdonald farm animal picks for awhile. and it just so happened that all these farmy animals make an appearance in george orwell's famed book.

i put them in order of "importance" in the animal farm plot (kinda). so lets start with the pigs and work our way to the cows, shall we?
