Donkeys

 


Donkeys are calm, steady animals and have been used for work and transport in many ways by humans over the years.  They feature in many bible stories.

Donkeys have a reputation for being stubborn.

Fun fact: In the desert a donkey is able to hear the call of another donkey 60 miles away, due to their large ears.

A Very Famous Donkey

"The old grey donkey, Eeyore stood by himself in a thistly corner of the Forest, his front feet well apart, his head on one side, and thought about things. Sometimes he thought sadly to himself, "Why?" and sometimes he thought, "Wherefore?" and sometimes he thought, "Inasmuch as which?" and sometimes he didn't quite know what he was thinking about."
AA Milne, Winnie the Pooh
