Yay, it worked! Machito is one of our four mules. He was a sad little guy tied to a tourist wall. It took a year to get him off of the wall, finally
able to give this guy the life he deserves.

This is "Dani". She is our biggest mule, a sometimes naughty red head.

This is our yearling "Roosevelt".
He's got a lot of growing and learning to do.

Not land-based, but does a midshipman count? Found it while riding along the beach between San Felipe and Puertecitos (figured it would look good as a
hood ornament on the bike).

I'm going to reveal my ignorance here  I'm still working on learning to
identify donkeys vs. mules!!!
In my photo, do I have a donkey (left) and a mule (right), or two mules?

Correct,… definitely a mule on right, but the apparent donkey on left could also be a young(small)/shaggy mule.
Mules
Woke!

Mulology: a mule is a cross between a donkey (burro) and a horse. Though mules are larger than donkeys, they will follow a donkey, perceiving the
donkey as a mother. On a mule ride, there's typically a "bell mare" at the front--a donkey with a bell who leads the way. The mules are reluctant to
separate from the donkey, and will follow behind.
A mule with a donkey mother (instead of a horse mother) is called a hinny in the US, and are not as common, but in Baja hinnies are quite common,
taking on more characteristics of the mother (donkey) and being better suited to desert forage.
Up with mules! They are equine ATVs.
