Missouians must tell you about this!


Missouri Mule:

The Missouri Mule is the Missouri official state animal. It is a hybrid, the offspring of a mare (female horse) and a jack (male donkey). After its introduction to the state in the 1820s, the mule quickly became popular with farmers and settlers because of its hardy nature. Missouri mules pulled pioneer wagons to the Wild West during the 19th century and played a crucial role in moving troops and supplies in World Wars I and II. For decades, the Missouri was the nation's premier mule producer.

Happy Mule Day!!!
