The **Donkey** is a tier 7 Land animal in Mope.io, and is the Land equivalent of the Zebra, Turtle, Warthog and Muskox. It was added on January 20, 2017. A more powerful variant, the **Jackass**, was introduced on March 3, 2020.

### Jackass

* All of the above.
* It has extra health, taking about x2 more hits to kill.
* The Jackass' ability will deal more much more damage and cause the victim to be stunned for a longer period of time.

## Appearance

### Gold Trim

The Gold Trim Donkey has the exact appearance of the Donkey, with the exception of a few tufts of golden-colored fur.

### Zonkey

The Zonkey is looks like a Donkey/Zebra hybrid because of its stripes. It has a man the same color as the Jackass's and 2 pairs of tiny pure black stripes on its snout. It has lighters stripes on it's body.

### Donkey (#GoldenAge)

The Donkey's main body color is a medium gray-brown with lighter ears. It has two large, beady black eyes - like every animal on Mope.io - and has a roughly triangular muzzle with two dots for nostrils. It has a fluffy mane, and tufted fur. Unlike most animals, who have a simple tail. the Donkey's sticks straight out and back, and is tufted with a cloud of black fur.

### Jackass (#GoldenAge)

The Jackass has a grey body with a white nose. It also has a darker mane than the donkey's. When using the passive "Mad Donkey" ability, the Jackass will extend its head forward, bare its eyes and show many teeth.

## Strategy

### As a Donkey or Jackass

Use your ability to your advantage. If any predators come too close, kick them back. Also, use it against tail-biters. Bite the predator, then just to be nasty but also to avoid them using their Special Ability, kick them away.

It has a funny way to troll; when you see an animal that is being chased by its predator, just kick it and it will bounce and crash into it's predator. You can also kick the predator to bounce into its prey too! Don't be too aggressive though; you can't kick your way out of everything. Besides, you never know when you're going to miss, so you better be sure that they are directly behind you and close enough for a good kick!

Another way to both annoy other players, and level up with hardly any effort is by staying close by to two Dragons fighting each other. When one is extremely close to dying, move a bit closer, turn around, and use your kick on the Dragons. Your kick will kill the Dragon that was low on HP, providing you with a quick pathway to Dragon.

A Black Dragon that is close to dying is the jackpot: be sure to use your kick on it! Whenever you see a high-level animal that is close to dying, just dash over to it and use your kick. But you have to time your kick correctly and also determine if you're close enough to the animal to have it within your kick range. You also have to make sure that the animal has low enough HP for your kick to kill it in one hit; otherwise, someone else could steal your kill or the animal could come after you and kill you before your kick could recharge. All in all, it depends on lots of timing and a bit of luck.

Another fruitful troll is to wait by the lava biome, then if anyone tries to attack you, kick them into the lava. The stun and the high knock-back of the kick will ensure they die. This can also be used in the water; kick Octopi, Krakens etc. out! It's riskier in water since you can be slow there, and have short diving time. The best way to avoid being eaten is to kick out players that are distracted by other creatures, or by hiding under an island close to the shore and kicking out any ocean animals that come near.

If you just want to play safe and get to the next animal quickly, eat Pears and Mushroom bushes. Even try eating a Honey Bee, using your ability to damage its health and taking the opportunity while it's stunned to eat it before the bee can sting you. Another farming option is, go to the volcano, and look for watermelons. Spitting at them 6 or 7 times by pressing `S` will produce slices. Slices in bulk will provide enough XP to instantly proceed to tier 8.

You can do even more trolling if you are lucky enough to get a Jackass. Their ability does more damage, so here's a fun troll for the Jackass and the Donkey. If an animal has a charge ability (e.g Markhor, Rhino, Dino Monster.), and they use it on you, make sure to be alert because this troll requires timing. Face a hill, and when they come close enough, kick it! If they continue to do this, wait till your ability charges (try a hiding-hole), and then continue. If you're lucky, you might even get a kill!

### Against a Donkey

Donkeys can be fairly hard to kill, due to their ability thriving as both an offensive and defensive ability. If you're prey of the Donkey, there's not much need to fear Donkeys as they can farm their way up much more easily than chasing prey. However, if you try tail-bite a Donkey, it could kick you away and eat you. If you're on low health, *do not* bite a Donkey unless it allows you.

Against predators, the Donkey does quite well. Since its ability comes from behind, predators chasing it will get the full blow. Therefore, try to passively attack it; when a Donkey has used its ability, attack it then or use your ability. It has an average reload time, giving you enough chance to at least deal some damage. While regular Donkeys are mostly just a minor nuisance, Jackasses are a bit more dangerous. Their ability inflicts higher damage, and additionally longer stunning. The longer stunning time will effectively decrease the intervals between a Jackass kicking you, which will be not very long. They should mostly just be avoided if possible. Like the regular Donkey, passively attacking them is the safest way to contribute to killing them. Otherwise, go on hills where all variants of Donkey cannot reach, or trees.
