The horse: what meaning can it even have in today's modern farm economy?
The cow: beef. Leather. Milk. Oh yeah! That's one powerfully persuasive trifecta! In the day and age of the modern moment, the question might well not be "why buy the cow?" but "why buy anything else?"
The chicken: its stock has taken some knocks in recent years, what with cost-effectiveness diminished by this whole free-range economy, plus the ever-present specter of salmonella, but as long as they keep laying those eggs there's nothing else you'll want on your McMuffin! Still a safe bet.
The emu: along with its exotic cousins the ostrich, the llama and the iguana, this bizarre bird-mammal-reptile hybrid is a fierce fighter with proven meat yield and a soft and lustrous coat. If current trends continue indefinitely, this could be a comer in coming years.
The pig: still the smartest, and always a threat to take over the whole works. It's hard to argue that you can get along without it, but watch carefully - and don't make mistakes anywhere where it can see you!
