1. “No animal shall kill any other animal" becomes “No animal shall kill any other animal without cause".

2. “No animal shall drink alcohol” becomes “No animal shall drink alcohol to excess”.

The original intent in altered in order to excuse the actions of the pigs. As you can see, history (commandments) are rewritten to placate the masses and justify the actions of their leaders.
