Are donkeys the same as asses?
I don't have a clue why we call donkeys asses', When it is a "bad word" are we calling them asses' because we don't like them or what?
No, they are herbivores.
Donkeys are herbivores, meaning they eat plant matter. Usually grass, but will also eat tree or bush leaves, fruit, tree bark. Grain is rarely fed to donkeys as it is "too rich" for their digestive tract and they will gain too much weight and can founder and possibly die.
An exception to the "no grain rule" is a mixture of shredded beet pulp and whole oats soaked in warm water with an addition of magnesium oxide and trace minerals that allows delivery of vitamins and minerals that are required to maintain good health. Miniature donkeys should get no more than 1/4 to 1/3 cup of this mixture per day. Small Standards and Standards, 1/2 cup. Large Standards to Mammoth, 2 cups per day. This is fed in addition to all the grass hay they can eat. Severly limiting their diet to keep them from getting fat backfires since a donkey's metabolism will slow to the point that fat builds up on their bodies in the form of fat pones (along the top of their necks, on their backs, hips, and bellies).
Do donkeys have a cross on their back?
This is a remnant of a more stripy coat. Darwin noted the relative frequency of double shoulder stripes in donkeys and mules and all equids are prone to having stripes on their legs, especially Somali and Egyptian donkeys. A similar tendency can be seen in all species of tapir (very closely related to equids) at birth.
How many babies do donkeys have in a delivery?
Produce refers to the offspring of a female. Therefore, a female is capable of producing offspring from the onset of maturity well into her later years. The most foals ever recorded for a horse mare was over twenty. No studies have been done on the number of offspring produced by a donkey jennet, but she would be capable of producing three foals every four years for her life from age three to death. Donkeys live to be well into their thirties on average. However, just breeding the jennet year after year to produce foals could be harmful to the jennet and shorten her lifespan. Any breeding of animals should be done to improve the breed as a whole, not just add numbers to a population.
Man would be very hurt and running around holding painful area.
What is a baby jackass called?
The terms used are the same as for horses. The general term for a young horse or donkey over one year old is a nag.

Catch all 202 Pokemon in your Pokedex, then go to the hotel in Lilycove City and talk to the Game Designer. No, that's how you get it. From what I've heard, it's simply a reward for the player for completing your Pokedex. Catch 200 Pokemon and talk to the Game Designer. All it is is it shows you a certificate. I thought it was something good but it wasn't. Depending on which game you have, catch all the Pokemon in it and see the Game Designer or (in later versions) the Professor.
This is just their way of communicating within the herd, to predators, and to humans as well. Animals talk, just as humans do it simply is in a different way.
