-A donkey is an [[ungulate]] used for draying, or work purposes. The donkey is also the [[Democratic Party]] symbol, due to a political cartoon by [[Thomas Nast]].
-Donkeys play an important role in the [[Gospel]]s, acting as a symbol of [[Jesus]]' humility: He made His triumphal entrance into [[Jerusalem]] on the first [[Palm Sunday]] riding on a donkey rather than a [[horse]] to show that He was not coming as a ruler, as some thought that the [[Messiah]] would do. Donkeys also feature in the [[Old Testament]]: in the book of [[Numbers]], Balaam has a talking donkey - the only talking animal in the [[Bible]] apart from the [[serpent]] in the [[Garden of Eden]].
