Oh Yes. The ole Donkey Trick.
Donkeys will stomp, kick, trample, badger, bite, and kill anything. ANYTHING.
Ask my son why he had a nice hoofprint on his forehead.
Our 'pet' donkey, Chopper, watched my son (then 5) crawl under the barbed wire to retrieve a dodgeball, then proceeded to knock him down, stomp his head and body.........and refused to stop, even when my husband was beating the crazed animal with a baseball bat. A composite baseball bat. To the head. He just kept on coming right back. If we hadn't been close by, I feel certain he would've killed my child. I KNOW he would have.
We have a neighbor that tried to play a joke on his Father-in-law by putting a donkey into his (FIL) cow pasture. The donkey killed 2 cows, and ran 8 more to death. A couple more were found drowned in the pond. Needless to say, the old man was POed. And the Donkey took a pretty quick dirt nap.
I have watched Chopper chase cats, birds, large dogs, and even adult men........and he didn't hesitate to rear up and use those front 2 hooves. And teeth.
