In Jonathan Swift's "Gulliver's Travels," Gulliver observes the repulsive practice of the Houyhnhnms, a rational horse-like species, who eat their deceased. While the Houyhnhnms view this as a natural part of life, Gulliver is horrified by their lack of respect for the dead and the grisly reality of their diet. This stark contrast between Gulliver's human sensibilities and the Houyhnhnms' norms highlights the absurdities of both societies.

If you are talking about the Gulliver's Travelsadvertisement on Poptropica, then the best advice I can give is to move to the left of screen when you don't see Gulliver's shoe, then when you do see it wait one or two seconds and start moving to the right. Then when he stomps down, you will be in front of his foot. Then after that do the same thing over again.
