This one is for the long ears! Donkeys are smart, loyal and wonderful companions. Many economies in the developing world depend on donkeys for income, transportation and ensuring basic needs for their human caretakers. In other parts of the world, donkeys provide friendship to horses, humans and other donkeys, and serve as excellent guard animals.
Donkey nutrition is not the same as that for horses, and in this episode I'll discuss some of the basics for feeding donkeys. Links for more information and sources by the Donkey Sanctuary are below.
