Choosing the wrong opponent, the hyena pays the price before the donkey's naive appearance

Donkeys' appearance makes us think that they are dull, stupid and easy to bully. However, reality proves the opposite.

Donkeys are herbivores, but they are temperamental and incredibly resilient. This often makes predators pay the price for believing their somewhat docile appearance.


Choosing the wrong opponent, the hyena was tricked and taught a lesson for life. (Video: Facebook).

In the video, filmed by tourists at a suburban farm, it can be seen that the donkey is not at all inferior to its opponent, a hyena. On the contrary, it teaches this hateful predator a lesson for life.

The video begins with the hyena trying to approach and grab the donkey's tail to gain an advantage, thereby making its prey lose the initiative. However, the donkey quickly realizes this intention.

With the advantage of height, and especially the very long snout, the donkey managed to escape control, then used its jaws to bite hard on the hyena's ear.

The bite was painful, but the animal could not escape because the donkey had a strong jaw. With its shorter snout, the hyena had no way to touch its opponent, and could only struggle in despair.

The donkey's tenacity left onlookers in awe. Few believed that a herbivore could be so strong. What was even more surprising was that the donkey's opponent, the hyena, was one of the fiercest hunters on the savannah. In some cases, hyenas even scared off cheetahs and lions.

Donkeys can herd sheep and protect livestock from outside predators.

Donkeys ( equus asinus ) have long been the object of ridicule for their ugliness compared to the elegance of horses.

However, the contribution of donkeys to human life is actually greater than that of their cousins.

Donkeys do not possess speed, but they have incredible strength and endurance , making them good at transporting goods, food, and pulling millstones.

Donkeys also have another skill, which is to protect the sheep from ferocious wolves.

At first, not many people believed this. However, in reality, when donkeys detect wolves or other hunters, their self-defense instincts will be activated, turning the donkey from a gentle herbivore into a fearsome attack machine.

Donkeys typically charge at their enemies with a series of kicks, then stomp on them. Another equally dangerous weapon of the donkeys is their powerful jaws. This is what can lock onto their enemies, causing them to lose control.

If attacked from behind, donkeys are also ready to launch a powerful rear kick with their hind legs, which can break the jaw of a predator if they are foolish enough to stand within foot range.
