Donkeys can be great for predator control. A family member has a couple of donkeys to help keep the coyotes away. If they see a coyote they are on the chase.
Helps his quail and pheasant population along with the deer. Probably also saves a couple calves a year.
During a back country fishing trip in Montana we had a grizzly bear walk within 50 yards of the corral. The horses were throwing a fit and were as far away as they could get from the bear in the corral. The 7 mules were lined up shoulder to shoulder and ready to charge that bear.
As a young packer/guide trainee in the 70's in Idaho, I learned that mules are the preferred critter in that capacity. Much less skittish than horses. If a grouse jumps up near a horse they often explode, the mule just yawns, whatever.
there is something not right with that action...the donkey presents its arse end and looks to give the hyaena both barrels and next its dragging what looks like a dead or out to it H around...
