First-time mama donkey bonds with her foal

Nothing in this world is purer, more powerful than a mother’s love for her child. The bond between a mother and her child is unique and unbreakable.

A donkey’s love for her newborn foal is captured in heartwarming photos. Expect your heart to melt!

Like horses, dogs, elephants, and many other animals, donkeys are very protective of their young. The cute little donkey in the photos below is a sweet furry ball that craves its mother’s constant attention.

Donkeys are as sensitive as they are cute. So, before a mother foal gives birth, the box must be cleaned and disinfected. Even after delivery, the two need particular care. During the first 2-3 weeks, the farmer must avoid approaching the mother and the infant.

But the baby donkey must get some exercise. It is also important for the baby to obtain as much sun as possible. Why? While donkey’s milk is full of vitamins, it lacks vitamin D, so the baby needs to be outside for at least 2-3 hours per day.

Regardless, donkey foals are incredibly sensitive. They are also amusing. They, like puppies, form instant bonds with people. But I’m sure it’s mutual because it’s hard not to fall for such a cute face.
