Great story spot. Locals use burros for protecting their sheep from 'otes. I've heard that a donkey will kill a predator. but this is a lion and the muled seemed to show no fear! BEAR |

BTW - I just got that email from a Friend. The notes say MT so I'm figuring some of our MT home boys should keep an eye out for it. I do get a kick out of the dog's watching the cat get the horse feathers getting kicked out of it in the last pic. Spot |

Bear is right, many sheep folk use donkeys & burros as guard animals. They are much more prone to stay with the flock and will run off or kill even the neighbors dog if it is unfamiliar. This is one of those stories you have to see to believe. WONDERFUL PICS!!!! |

Pics are true, story is wrong. Sorry it really does make a good story. But the truth is almost as good. This was taken at the conclusion of a hunt, the dogs tracked and treed the lion, hunter shot and killed it. That is why the dogs are peacefully sitting there, they had done their job. I believe they put the carcass on the mule, or tried to. the mule was having none of it and grabbed the "dead" lions paw or tail, and started swinging it madly. the photos show what happened. Probably ruined someones trophy, but it does show what a mule thinks of the big cats. I also suspect when it was over the mule pissed on the carcass and gave it a few extra kicks. The mule's name is Berry and the incident took place in New Mexico. Western Mule Magazine, did an article on it. Look it up in your back issues (about 2004), sure you all subscribe BEAR |
