Isn’t that “specie-ism” or sume such?

I mean “hating” a whole species...

A farm near my house has a donkey out to protect the cows and calves a lot of the time. They’re coyote killers for sure.

I just learned about this last week; was reading about putting either a donkey or llama out with a flock of sheep to protect them. Interesting.

I’ve heard donkeys in Tijuana can be messed with & can put on quite a show.

I like donkeys but I LOVE mules. There was a thread many years ago here about a mule who killed a mountain lion, many pictures of the attack and kill. It was impressive.

It is pretty common around rural Florida where I live, to have a donkey or two to protect a livestock herd from predators, like coyotes.

However, they aren't always the most reliable security beasts.

The dairy next door to our cattle farm had two donkeys to protect their herd of milk cows from coyotes. The owner had to get rid of them after one of them killed several newborn calves.
