Are those not donkeys? LOL No wonder they don't look like donkeys I have seen before.

Yep, it's a genuine drove of donkeys.
The donkey or ass (Equus africanus asinus), a member of the horse family. The wild ancestor of the donkey is the wild African ass, E. africanus. The donkey has been used as a working animal for at least 5000 years. A male donkey or ass is called a jack, a female a jenny or jennet. Jack donkeys are often used to mate with female horses to produce mules.

And don't forget the hinny - male horse (stallion) to jenny. Or the zedonk - zebra/donkey cross.
I'm reading "Smoke the Donkey", which is about a donkey that was adopted by a Marine colonel in Iraq and all he went through getting Smoke over here. Quite an enjoyable book.
Yeah, I like donkeys. And horses. And mules. And zebras. But especially cats (a clowder).
PS, love your donk photos.

Hi Myron, we have spent the last 4 months in Scottsdale living in our 5.0TA and loving it. Not many ruins to walk to but have really enjoyed walking to the local brewery!
