Description

Nix, Texas

1/320, f 9.0, ISO 100, 130mm

Why do people keep donkeys? A donkey can have many uses. An example is protecting sheep/cattle & goats. Once a donkey has bonded with a herd it will protect them against canine predators (foxes, dogs, coyote) as it would one of its own. It beds down with the animals at night and on hearing any strange noises will voice a warning to the herd and chase, often trampling, the predator.
