      Yes they are. They are also great pack animals that are sure footed on steep rocky terrain. They can be cute and fun to be around too. Kind of a mischievous nature to them. The ones I’ve been around settled down after they age a bit.

      Horses, donkeys can also be jerks. A horse I rode growing up Beggar, he loved all the attention, oats and brushing he could get. Saddled and bridled though he couldn’t wait to get me off him. Used to bite my shin when he had enough. I’d almost always acquiesced. I think he knew that I would walk him back by the creek so he could get some fresh water or greens before walking him back to be unsaddled and brushed. He was a good old boy. To old to want some punk kid telling him where to go and how fast.
