Usually the odour of a female horse or donkey will have a strong smell when they are in heat. The male will be able to smell the hormones in the urine, and signal that she is ready for breeding.

Why are horse and donkeys not the same species?

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.


Why do they put horses and donkeys together?

Donkeys and horses are compatible with each other. When they cross breed, they produce a mule or hinney. Mules and hinneys combine some of the best qualities of both to create a strong animal.


If donkeys protect horses and goats protect sheep what protects cattle?

Cattle are not frequently attacked by wild animals and they do a decent job of protecting themselves when attacked. Cattle and hogs do well together, though. They don't compete for the same food and the hogs enjoy eating cow pies. Hogs are also light sleepers so they can roust the cattle if wild predators are about.


Why are horses and donkeys considered different species even though they can produce offsprings?

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.


Does a donkey have longer ears or does a horse?

Donkeys have long ears, considerably longer than horses Horses are faster than donkeys. Even smaller horses can outrun a donkey. Donkey's conformation is not as similar as a horse when you look into the finer details. Donkey's need an earlier warning so they can have a head start to run away. Therefore donkeys hearing is better.
