Best Answer

A mule is the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse. They are known for their sure-footedness, as well as their ability to carry a heavy load and work with humans.

A cross breed between a male horse and female donkey is called a hinny. A hinny looks a bit more like a horse than a mule does. Female mules and female hinnys can rarely have offspring. The males can't ever reproduce, but they can mate.
