The donkey (also referred to as an ass, Equus asinus) is a domesticated animal in the horse family. A mule is the offspring of a male donkey (called a "jack") and a female horse (called a "mare.")
A donkey is an ungulate used for draying, or work purposes. The donkey is also the Democratic Party symbol, due to a political cartoon by Thomas Nast.
