Symbol of peace, riding animal, pack animal

Donkeys have a bad reputation. Many people think they are stubborn, stupid, and lazy. But that's not true.

Donkeys are cautious. When they are unsure or afraid, they stand rooted to the spot and refuse to be forced into anything. This is wrongly attributed to stubbornness and stupidity.

Donkeys are actually desert animals and save their energy reserves in hot weather. This is not laziness but smart behavior.
