Donkeys are an amazing part of God's creation. They are very observant, hardy, and useful in many ways. The females bond with each other, especially their daughters and smaller animals that they can protect. Job had 500 donkeys. Jesus chose to make his triumphant entry into Jerusalem on a donkey. Balaam's donkey was both wise and faithful when she saved his life. You can read their feeling by looking at their ears. If they are standing strait up, you can see that they are alert and observant. If one ear is up and the other is sticking straight out you can be sure that they are confused. If both ears are drooping down and out you can tell that they are sad, usually when they are wet and cold. They have more personality than a horse. They are stronger pound for pound, and you can see the love in their big beautiful eyes. If you have a few acres of land, or goats, calves, or sheep to protect, then you need a hand fed, gentle "Guard Donkey." |
