Do male donkey and female donkey mates?

Yes, a male donkey (jack) and a female donkey (jenny) can mate. When they do, they produce offspring called a foal, which is a purebred donkey. This is different from the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse, which is a mule, or a female donkey and a male horse, which is a hinny. Mules and hinnies are sterile, meaning they cannot reproduce, but donkeys themselves are fertile and their offspring can go on to reproduce as well. This ability to mate and produce fertile offspring is what defines them as the same species.

Mules are sterile--they won't mate with a horse, a mule, a donkey, or any other animal. They aren't breedable.

The actual animals were named Blue Moon and Lightning Strikes.
