The book highlights the practical aspects of donkey and mule husbandry, such as saddle fitting, harnessing, nutrition, and veterinary care. Moreover, the authors provide a comprehensive analysis of the anatomical differences between donkeys and mules, their implications for veterinary procedures, and the challenges of clinical parasitology and podiatry, offering practical guidance for maintaining their health and well-being. Written in an easy-to-understand style, this textbook is the first of its kind to provide detailed medical information on donkeys, mules and hinnies.
