Do you know the difference between a donkey, a mule, a jackass or a burro?
A donkey is a species of animal, much like a horse but not a horse. They have distinct DNA. Donkeys are also called, Ass, Jackass (male) or Burro in the Southwest.
A Mule is a cross between a Donkey and a horse. They are sterile. Mules look more like horses and are much larger than donkeys. There ya go!
