DEUT1437 [This verse] forbids the muzzling of an ox while it is working in the field. Jewish law understands this prohibition as applying to any working animal, not just an ox (Maimonides, Book of the Commandments, negative commandment 219). It is cruel to muzzle an animal and thereby preclude it from eating of the food it is working with, seeing, smelling, and perhaps hungering for.
