Draft mules are hybrid animals created by breeding a male donkey with a female horse. They are known for their strength and endurance, making them suitable for heavy work, such as pulling plows or carts. Their size and build often resemble that of a mule, but they inherit traits from both parent species. These animals are valued in agriculture and transportation due to their ability to work in tough conditions. Draft mules are typically more resilient than horses and can thrive in various environments. Their unique combination of characteristics makes them an important asset in farming and other labor-intensive tasks.
