They don't really need to be trained to protect, they do it naturally, and are VERY good at it. LOVE it!

Yes. They protect their territory.

When I first moved back to Florida, I was amazed at all of the cattle ranches in the central Florida area. As i drove around more and more, I noticed every ranch had one donkey. Now I know why.

In the uk it used to be the same too and it was considered that a donkey in with the herd stopped the cows from aborting their calves. Science or old wives tale/superstition - i don't know!

Yes, it is an odd juxtaposition to see so many farms and pastures all up and down streets and the interstate.

I love my Donkeys, Cooper and Braya. They protect our farm and my grandkids can crawl right up on their backs without a saddle or reigns

Donkeys are used to guard calfs and sheep here in Ireland from feral/stray/loose dogs. They're extremely tough and can kill quite easily. They're also very strong as they are still used to pull turf carts and plough fields

What a lovely lady looking after poor donkeys well done beautiful life for them 💓💓💓💓💓🙏🙏💫💫

I've always loved donkeys, they're smart and when they are bonded they are loyal as hell. I've always thought they were nice looking animals also.

Predators typically expect prey animals to runaway. That usually emboldens them to attack. Donkeys will go right at the predator, which confuses the predator. Donkeys are strong, fast, aggressive and fearless. They also have a strong bite. Their hides are very tough as well. They can easily pick up a dog or coyote by the head and rag doll them. They will also kick and trample them with their sharp hooves. They have even been know to take down larger predators like hyenas.

Love me a donkey, very underrated animal. ❤️🇬🇧😁

I myself love them for all sorts of reason. They were and still are much abused worked to death neglected abandonned left to die when no longer useful or end up in a knackers' yards Shame on us. Such great souls. Love them. 💔💔💔

Your doing a fabulous job. Your donkey 💜 I’m in love 🥰

We looove donkeys. We visit the local donkey celebrities here where we live. Beautiful sweet creatures.

Donkeys are the best ⭐️

This is very common in Texas. You see a few loose with most animals that are at risk for coyotes.

It's nice that you provide a place for my family to find sanctuary.

There is something very special about these animals. I know that they sometimes formed extremely close bonds with the early American gold prospectors. Inseparable, in fact.

Beautiful story

Donkeys are used all over Florida to protect cattle.

what a wonderful lady !

They are soooooooo beautiful and smart! When we m9ve to the country I will definitely get one or two !

Donkey's are tough. I want a pair to play with. It's likely they'd play with me and keep me in line.

Yes I have heard of guard donkeys.

gotta love the subtle music of The Man From Snowy River

VERY COOL

the part of the video where the donkey was rolling around, it is SO cute!

I witnessed what a donkey is capable of. My friend had a pitbull, when his dog got out of the truck at my buddy's place, the dog started messing with my friends donkey, my buddy warned him to get his dog, the little donkey had sprung a leak from the pit biting it, about 8 seconds later that pit was dead.

Great video 😊❤️💞❤️ Donkey s are beautiful 😊

There's a video of a donkey killing a hyena, it bites it's neck and throws him like a rag doll then kicks and stomps it to death.

They were not the first domesticated animal, not even close. I saw on KZread years ago where a Cougar was trying to attack a man and his donkey grabbed that cat in its mouth, swung it around and around, threw it on the ground and stumped it to death, it was unbelievable. And the horses were just freaked out and useless.

I've heard dream stories about guard donkeys and horror stories about them. It seems there are too many that kill goats, especially baby goats. I would like a guard donkey, but can't stand to take a chance. So, I have livestock guardian dogs. They live well with goats and chickens and protect them from predators.

Do you even realize how many dogs have killed livestock? Of course livestock guardian dogs have an instinct to protect, but you still have to train them well so they harm your animals. Don’t take them for granted.

@farmtalk491

@@yeetngreet148 Yes. Neighborhood dogs killed all my in-law's goats and they were big goats. I assume you meant "don't" harm your animals. People have bred livestock guardian dogs for thousands of years to have the right instincts to protect. There are some LGD that are failures even when raised right, but most of them seem to do pretty well. Most of mine have worked out. I wish our ancestors had also bred a line of livestock guardian donkeys with all the right instincts. Donkeys live a lot longer than dogs and are usually much cheaper to feed as long as you have pasture. You also don't have the added expenses of heartworm and flea treatment.

Donkeys in Asia have turned soy mills for ages... leading to the invention of tofu!

So…..let a donkey move into your house with you and your family sleeping between husband and wife 😮 making your life a little spicy 🌶 hot 🥵 that’s a donkey life 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Yup, donkeys can kill very well. Good boy.

There awnrey and they fart!

Donkeys will kill wolves and mountain lions

These guard donkeys are not smart and will kill anything that looks different in the herd .. they can't tell the difference between a dog a calf a goat or sheep in a herd of grown cows so anything you try to mix in there with the cows consider it a threat to the donkey even calves..but if you are training it to kill foxes and coyotes and wolves then of course it's going to kill dogs or anything that looks different than the cows... I may be wrong and if you've seen it a donkey be nice around dogs or calves then you can test it I'm just going by what I've seen on other videos

Anyone who thinks that prey animal can be used to protect from predators is rather daft. Donkeys are NOT guardians. This is the worst tripe ever used about donks. Who is responsible for your livestock? You. Want a great guardian for your livestock? Get a livestock guardian dog. Oh, yeah - your guardian donkey may kill your lambs, kids and calves too.
