The
donkey
The
donkey has been one of the most valuable animals to humans since ancient times.
Domesticated more than 5,000 years ago, this noble animal has accompanied
civilisations in their daily tasks, especially in agricultural and transport
work.
Its strength, endurance and ability to adapt to difficult terrain made it
an indispensable ally in this rugged region. Despite its modest size, it can
carry considerable weights and travel long distances without resting, which
made it ideal for transporting water, firewood, food and goods.
