Description: Here we see Gulliver first encountering the Houyhnhnms. One examines Gulliver’s hand, as it looked very different than the hands of the yahoos, the humans who lived in the Country of the Houyhnhnms. The Houyhnhnms scared away the yahoos who were tormenting Gulliver. The Houyhnhnms brought Gulliver home with them, and Gulliver lived with the Houyhnhnms for several years before returning to England.
