Ever see Donkeys in with Livestock and wonder why Ranchers own them?
I had a double registered Quarter Horse/Palamino that hated dogs/yotes. I had a Britney Puppy training for bird hunting and she went into the field with my horse and that horse ran her down and stomped her. Luckily I ran in and chased the horse away. The pup had a broken leg. I had to get a new cast on her leg every couple of weeks.I had a 1/4 horse that hated dogs, coyotes etc. I buried a few when I showed in morning to feed. Gentle horse otherwise. Just like being a flamingo dancer at times.
Sounds like that mule was just an a-hole...My mule was hard on canines, coyotes, and healer dogs wouldn't come close. However, I'm not sure how they do against wolves, having seen the damage they do at times to donkeys.
Disclaimer this particular mule grabbed a goat, and tossed it into the side of the barn.
Pretty decent critter actually. They all have moments.Sounds like that mule was just an a-hole...
