Wonderful video!!! I have volunteered at a donkey sanctuary. These animals are SO unique and SO special, they are over-worked and abused worldwide, which is very sad. But, what a beautiful creature they are! I am so happy that this video captures this about them, and I encourage people to learn about these animals, and to experience their beauty!!!

I have learned so much from you, Valia. You have completely changed my perception of these unique and interesting beauties. Also, the idea of just walking beside a donkey, sharing time as you would explore with your dog, is a complete awakening for me. Thank you so much for making some much needed changes to my thinking. You make the world a brighter and more engaging place with your work. 💜

It must be said; Donkeys are excellent livestock guardians. They are ferocious about taking care of their crew, be it ducks, sheep, goats, or a mix of beasties. Again, if you want them as livestock guardians, get at least two. Thanks for a brilliant upload, Valia!

When they get attached to you, they will never forget you, and will miss you if you go away.

Wonderful video, donkeys are such adorable animals, a thought of a little baby donkey just melts my heart!!!

A family friend had a donkey farm when I was growing up. She had a donkey 'stallion' who led the herd, his name was Lightning and he was notoriously mean to strangers. Oddly enough, he always loved me whenever my family visited the farm (the bag of carrots probably helped). As a small child, I would always run off to play with Lightening, and whenever it was time to leave I would hide between his legs because Lightening would chase away my parents and other adults who were trying to convince me to go home lol. As an equestrian, I have to say that donkeys are far more loving and intelligent that horses. They feel emotions very deeply. People underestimate how wonderful these creatures are.

Now I want two! I love seeing all the different colors as I always thought of them as just brown or gray. Great video. Made me smile and I really needed that smile today.

The donkeys I had as a kid weren't "stubborn" or anything. They were sweet. Affectionate and loved to play. But mostly they liked to give kisses, be close to you and the younger one enjoyed playing hide and seek! They were more like puppies or dogs. We actually didn't really ride them after awhile and spent more time simply walking around our 20 acres and the followed us and seemed to really enjoy it. They were so great. Miss them. Cookie and Jenny were there names.

I adore donkeys. They are an endless source of joy and love. There is something so profound and wise about their spirit.

**smiles** Long ears totally ROCK! Amongst my nine equine companions is a beloved miniature molly mule named Maggie (Mae) who totally enchants me. She just turned 15 this past November and is the youngest member of the herd. Mules can be even more challenging and independent than donkeys due to their intelligence. It's entertaining and fascinating to watch how she interacts with others, once she trusts someone she's all over them looking for affection and attention... ~"My treasures do not ching together or glitter.

They make great companion animals and pets, they are really intelligent and affectionate. Unfortunately, they are some of the most abused farm animals, and since they can take tremendous hardship and pack weight, they are overworked. In many places such as China, they are brutalized and killed brutally for their pelts.

So cute. If ever I have the outdoor space and the time, I’d love to have a couple of these little friends 😊

This is the nicest thing I've seen in a long time, and so informative! I love all animals and learning about them all. Thank you very much, I'm now even more fond of the donkey as i was before. There were miniature donkeys being kept and sold near my house years back. I thought about buying one but I lost my house. I wish they weren't treated so harshly in India, Greece, etc, they're such tender animals that recognize their owners and need loving care.

I remember as a kid on a trek through Death Valley there was a herd of wild donkeys that we camped near for a few days. They bray every sunrise. Kind of like roosters. Beautiful creatures.

And 11.: Beloved Donkeys come to their owner, when they call the name, it's absolutely true! Calling "Fritz" or "Lola" and they come quickly to their owner - just like dogs. Two rescued donkeys. So cuteiiiiiii. Greetings from Germany

Thanks for facts I personally didn't know and I grew up around donkeys. They are really great pets, my grandmother had several, and I spent much of my younger years at her farm. Your always a ray of sunshine Valia, thank you. Hope you are doing well and staying happy at heart. Give the fur family a few cuddles for me if you wouldn't mind❤😎🐾

Wow! At 63 yrs of age I have learned all of this and have a great respect for the donkey! Thanks so much.

Just had a chance to be on a farm working with donkeys. Yes, it didn't take long to fall in love with them. Like all animals I find it hard to deal with cruelty. These animals were from a rescued situation.

Great video. Donkeys are so lovable, If I had enough land, there would be many donkeys that I could love. The are wonderful animals.

Yess they all are sooo smart so adorable sooo sweet God made them all beautiful smart adorable sweet but unfortunately some people can't not see all the blessings that God has give us and put around us because they are blind full of darkness just so sad and sad , but i thank God for the people who appreciate them and take care of them and love them 😗💝💜💜💚💚💓❣💙💙💟💟💞😍

Nice video ! I learned something ! I really didn't know they are odourless and memory-hero's 😳 and I like that they are building lifetime-friendships 🐴🐴 💞

I have worked in a Donkey sanctuary for five years and agree with most of that. The sanctuary I work at has the 2nd biggest donkey in the world (a Jackstock mammoth) called Derek. We also have some other relatively rare breeds, as well as having three Zedonks (zebra donkey crosses). Fantastic animals, and I love them

I might just have to go get 2 donkeys

We have a donkey sanctuary in Devon, here in the UK. It’s a very therapeutic place, and the animals are loved, stimulated, happy and healthy. I often see them playing with beach balls, hula hoops, even cardboard boxes. Patience is the key when trying to form a bond with them, and I love them.

Very interesting! I love your channel and voicing your intelligence with grace! I pray for Greece always!

They have served humanity for thousands of years.

Donkeys are surprisingly intelligent and have EXCELLENT memory and sense of location. In older times, donkeys were used to plot roads because they could tell which path was safest beneath their hooves, and thus could be turned into a road. They CAN be stubborn because they like the things they know are safe. If a donkey gets used to a specific route, they will stick to it until it becomes unsafe to them. That said, what a donkey considers safe and what someone riding said donkey might consider safe can be two VERY different things. I've seen them climb pretty much vertical hills and stand on the precipice of deep ravines, but they are intelligent and sensitive enough to know they're safe. They are also surprisingly tough and strong. They can work HARD and carry really heavy loads and, while I don't support overworking (no one should overwork), they make for excellent animal help in fields. In my grandparents' old stone olive press, a single donkey could turn the stone the entire work day (though they did have two donkeys so they could take breaks). This also means that if you, somehow, manage to anger or push a donkey to aggressive behavior, it can and will hurt you. They are intelligent and compassionate, but, as with most animals, they react to threats and pain.

Donkeys are adorable ❤️ thanks for the information Valia ❤️

Their kindness, and gentle nature, always brings a smile to my dial, even as they slowly squash me flat - during a lengthy cuddle session. They totally *LOVE* hugs and cuddles.

They are such lovely animals and it's such ashame the treatment that they have had over the years. Even here in England, there are sanctuaries set up for donkies that were worked to the bone at sea side resorts for stupid kids to ride around. They have back issues and their feet are sore and painful. These are sweet, gentle and loving animals and I wish people would stop using them as slaves and treating them like they are stupid. It's so sad to me.

Very informative, thank you.
