[64] Larks are small to medium-sized birds, 5 to 8 inches in length and 0.5 to 2.6 ounces in weight.

     During Gulliver’s time, people couldn’t afford to be vegetarian, and were not bothered by Animal Rights. They had enough on their plates concerning their own Human Rights.

     Come to think of it: seeing that nowadays Human Rights are not less abused, is it possible that the Animal Rights flag is waived as a distraction from the abuses of Human Rights?

Small bird, indeed.
