They are considered different due to a different number of Chromosomes.
Horses and Donkeys are considered separate due to the different number of chromosomes each possesses. They are however in the same family and can breed together to produce mules and hinnies, which also have a different number of chromosomes and are typically sterile.
because they each have a different number of chromosomes
Horses and donkeys can reproduce offspring because there they are so closely related they are scientifically classified in the same kingdom, phylum, class, order, family, and genus. Their offspring will often be infertile though.
Horse: Equus caballus Donkey: Equus asinus They are two different species, but are in the same family.

Equus, horses and donkeys.
Donkeys and horses are not from the same species because of this: In sexual organisms, two organisms belong to the same species if they are able to breed and have fertile offspring. Although horses and donkeys can have mules, they are infertile, so they are two separate species and the mule is a hybrid.
Yes. Donkeys are introduced, and not native to Australia.
If two organisms are able to mate and produce fertile offspring, then they are of the same species.Horses and donkeys are two different species because if they mate, they produce a mule which is sterile (not fertile). This shows horses and donkeys are of different species.
no
No, each species of donkeys are the same. They have shirts that go with their hat. Depending on where they run, they are subject to different behaviors.
