Mules are often undervalued and deserve more recognition from people because they truly are very special. Mules have inherited the best qualities of both horses and donkeys, by being larger and faster-moving than donkeys but less picky about food and stabling than horses, and cheaper to keep.
They are often considered stubborn and bad-tempered, but mule owners say that this is just a myth because they are usually flexible and adjust to your orders. Unfortunately, mules are sterile so in order to breed them, you will have to start again from the original horse/donkey pairing!
Although they are not as popular as horses mules can be used for various applications such as riding, driving, flight protection, guide, breeding, and training calves. Despite their similarities, mules have anatomical and physiological differences compared to horses and their care requires special consideration.
Riding an untrained mule is a challenge even for the most advanced riders, but the brave man shown in the video proves that with real work and commitment you can achieve everything. We are simply amazed and motivated by this mans’ devotion and courage to train this mule and to do so in such an excellent manner.
It is important to recognize the difficulties that came up and think through them, by remaining steady and going with your instinct. In the end, you will have a great little mule who respects you and listens to what you need from her. Watch the interesting video below and make sure to share it with your friends!
