Donkeys have the ability to learn between 50 and 100 command words, similar to the way a dog learns to "sit", "come", "stay", etc. Basic words that donkeys can learn are "back", "right", "left", "trot", "walk", "go", etc. So, based on their ability to associate words with actions, they have the ability to learn to do a lot of things. Donkeys are extremely intelligent and are constantly figuring things out, quite often just by watching people or other donkeys do things. Typical simple "tricks" that they can learn can be rolling a plastic barrel across the ground or picking things up from the ground with their mouth when asked to do so, etc. Actually the sky is the limit, as donkeys will do many things for you as long as you can be trusted by them.
