They say that some horses can never be tamed, but what about their jolly, shaggy cousins? Can a donkey be tamed? These grey boys are actually the tamest of all, imprinting their owners like a mammalian parrot, hellbent on making the silliest faces and the funniest noises to make their farm hoomans happy. Like an emotional support dog, donkeys have a special effect on humanity, enjoying frequent hugs, constant attention, and a bundle of hay every now and then, while taking their joy-bringing job seriously. Happy go lucky as they seem, the smol boy cousin of the horse is more tame than any other equine will ever be and they might even be the perfect hooved house pet. They come when they're called, they love their hoomans, and they're smart enough to do tricks. So look out mini pigs, here comes the superior farm animal coming to steal the show.
In my opinion, donkeys are actually the cutest animals on the farm. How is it that nature decided to cram the personality of a delightful doggo into the body of a bovine beauty? How could we be so lucky to be graced with the undying love of a scraggle-horse with an attaching personality? Well, fortunately there's an entire herd of donkeys waiting for affirmative attention down below. Scroll for the handsomest, silliest donkey pics that'll guarantee a grin.
