DONKEY 



What is a donkey?

The donkey is an animal of the horse family as it is a pet, and there is a donkey of another type that lives in the wild, precisely in the valleys and deserts of Africa and Asia.  The donkey is of the genus equid, the order of individual hoofs, of the family of mammals, and the chordates found in the animal kingdom of living organisms.  He is the eternal companion of humans, and he is acquainted with him with the diversity of his family, and the bearer of hardship and weight, is still in his eternal and ancient role, even though his species, the wild Unager, are endangered.  His name is called a small donkey colt.


The relationship of donkeys to humans


There is a great and beautiful relationship between donkeys and humans.  However, we have always accused her of stupidity and contempt.  We compare any retarded and helpless person to a donkey.  It is a despicable trait that the world is saying.  You hear the British describe the failures of the judiciary and the police, and they say, “The law is an ass.”  Here the question arises, why did we allocate the donkey for stupidity?  And we came to the answer: the donkey is one of the stupidest animals because it serves us.  If he was sane, he would go and serve another animal more respectful than us.
 After this stupid phenomenon for which there is no justification, I will raise my hat to this donkey heritage and say that this animal (the donkey) is “the donkey of the judge is dear.”

label

In the Arabic language, the zebra is badly acknowledged via way of means of the call “zebra” withinside the fashionable public, however this call is inaccurate for the subsequent reasons: a zebra is, in keeping with the modern definition, an animal that become a puppy and then “savaged” i.e. back to a wild life, and accordingly, the zebra is The
domesticated donkey that become launched into the wild, lived wild and misplaced its reference to humans, and it have to additionally be prominent from the wild donkey, because the latter is the only that become now no longer domesticated at all. This striped sort of equine become by no means referred to as via way of means of the Arabs as a zebra, alternatively they referred to as it “the tabby” due to the fact its pores and skin become striped just like the tabby cloth, or “the zebra” or “the zebra,” which means the striped. People, and with a view to distinguish among those reds and others, they have become referred to as: “zebras” or “tabyasian reds” or “zebras” and now no longer “wilds” for the aforementioned reason.

The relationship of the donkey with the human being

Even if we drop from our account the cruelty with which people deal with this puppy in particular, which on my own can fill a whole file, understanding that there may be no want to drop the communicate approximately this cruelty, besides for worry of admitting what it may reveal.. Even if we additionally drop the denial with which this animal is dealt with, specifically in societies which can be now no longer agricultural, they now no longer want it and feature now no longer grow to be basically business to be able to realize the posh of managing animals with kindness and care, as is the case of society in
our Arab cities, wherein not anything stays of the donkey besides the call. And the call, because it has been acknowledged for centuries, is synonymous with insult! It suffices us to word that the presence of the donkey withinside the day by day lifestyles of guy lasted for extra than 5 thousand non-stop years.. that is, a enough duration for this presence to make contributions to many additions to the cultural inventory of humanity, and those additions moved to the misfortune in their source, so that they remained in a big a part of them beside him withinside the shade. This is what Abboud Attia attempts to shed mild on on this file. The donkey is a totally unbiased species from the pony, now no longer a degenerate breed of horse, as turned into believed. When Napoleon Bonaparte crossed the
Alps in his marketing campaign towards Italy, the French painter Jacques-Louis David acquired a request from Charles IV of Spain to color this crossing in a portray. David surely painted a great portray, wherein we see Napoleon, who held the name of First Consul, on a white horse perched on his
hind legs at the mountain rocks.. That portray turned into richly deserved on the time, a masterpiece of political propaganda, even David's expert painted 4 copies of it for 4 customers are different. But after the autumn of the Napoleon Empire in 1815 AD, there has been now no longer a want for political propaganda, and the scope for ancient fact turned into widened. In 1848, the artist Paul de Laroche painted the practical image wherein we see Bonaparte in a wintry weather coat on horseback... a mule. The mule, as it's far acknowledged, is a donkey and a mare breeding child. About 1/2 of a century earlier than the generation of Napoleon, that is, withinside the center of the eighteenth century, the herbal global, Count de Buffon, wrote a studies paper at the donkey withinside the well-known clinical magazine Natural History, Public and Private. This studies turned into the primary in records that announces that the donkey is a totally unbiased species from the pony and now no longer a degenerate species of horse as turned into formerly believed. This is what technology later showed easily. And what de Buffon wrote withinside the article is if the donkey turned into given the identical interest as the pony, and if we troubled to elevate it as we increase horses, there may be no question that the donkey can be capable of carry out matters which can be unknown besides due to the fact it's far withinside the arms of merciless human beings of hard nature. But this clinical fairness, whose validity has been supported via way of means of many current experiments, stays too small to shake the picture of the donkey withinside the famous and public judgment of right and wrong that has been formulated over lots of years, and which, whilst it exceeds the denial of the donkey in moments of
want for its services, it seems to it with inferiority and contempt that touches
hostility to what's in it of cruelty. The identical denial of the falsification of records or fact on the arms of the painter David, is the identical we examine withinside the bookstores in our markets. In every of them there are dozens of books that communicate approximately horses, however one has to go looking in ten libraries to discover a brochure at the donkey.. If we open the World Arabic
Encyclopedia, for the particular instance that everybody can touch, we can discover that the object Donkey occupies best approximately 1/2 of a page , at the same time as the Whale clause, for instance, occupies 15 pages.. Note that the whale has no good sized function in human lifestyles as compared to the function performed via way of means of the donkey and nevertheless is. In any case, denial - withinside the experience of ignoring this animal - stays much less horrific than what the donkey confronted in managing him. For extra than 5 thousand years, the donkey turned into the servant of the servants, and a laborer to the
farmer, who in flip labored for a advanced grasp. Therefore, it turned into best herbal that every one the persecution of his instant grasp could be focused on him via way of means of his Supreme Master. It is surprising - because it seems from a number of the later texts on this file - that the cruel and vicious remedy to the quantity of the ferocity with which the donkey turned into dealt with withinside the days of Lucius Apuleius withinside the Roman Empire, is the identical that Tawfiq al-Hakim witnessed in Egypt at some point of the 20th century, and anybody nowadays notices it in any agricultural environment. And due to the fact guy, because the emergence of civilizations, sees withinside the pressure brought to a set of malicious characteristics as a manner to alternate the path of unsatisfactory conditions, he noticed withinside the donkey's capacity to undergo and its stubbornness is stupidity. Until his call has been converted at some point of the a while in maximum of the global's languages ​​into an insult, used withinside the face of anybody who lacks intelligence or right behavior. The paradox is this impact of the cost of the donkey first fashioned with the servants and farmers approximately their servant, and surpassed from them to their masters, achieving the very best stages of writers and intellectuals who have been satisfied and followed this opinion. This impact turned into continually reinforced, and infrequently refuted at some point of the donkey's lengthy records. Some of the primary stations withinside the records of the donkey All domesticated donkeys withinside the global nowadays belong to 2 species of untamed donkeys that have been bred withinside the Horn of Africa and Nubia. It turned into consequently herbal that the Pharaohs of Nubia have been the primary to tamed this donkey at an unspecified time at some point of the fourth millennium BC, with proof that the tomb of Imhotep, which dates returned to approximately 3000 BC, consists of wall drawings displaying donkeys used to move items and trip as well...

And across the 12 months 1800 BC, the donkey left the Nile Valley thru the markets of Damascus, which turned into an vital alternate center, to all elements of the historic international, and right away in comparison to the lengthy length wherein it remained withinside the usa of Nubia. The Hammurabi Code, which turned into drawn up in Iraq 3 hundred years later, blanketed a provision requiring the execution of anybody who steals a donkey. Because of the capacity of this animal to stroll over bumpy roads, it unfold withinside the mountains, and due to its capacity to face up to thirst and heat, it unfold in all wilderness oases from North Africa to China. The donkey occupied a location (now no longer a location) that no different animal in agricultural civilizations occupied. It turned into utilized in transportation withinside the broadest experience of the word: transporting items and people, pulling wagons, and shifting motion in mills... all of the manner to army components for the navy of Alexander the Great in his conflict with the Persian king Darius, therefore coming into the battlefield of army existence as well, as a way to now no longer stop till the 20 th century. Until the times of the Roman Empire, there has been a donkey of a exceptional species aside from African in origin, the purple donkey that turned into inhabiting Central Asia (and it's far likely, through digressing, that the call of the donkey in Arabic is because of the purple-brown colour that outstanding this unique animal). But the purple donkey turned into very tough to grasp, and its taming turned into now no longer usually guaranteed.. Therefore, as quickly because the African donkey arrived in Rome, they absolutely deserted the purple donkey in its favor, if we anticipate that the African donkey had an hobby on this adoption.. As for the purple donkey today, it's far adore it Most of the wild donkeys are threatened with extinction.
During approximately thousand years, there has been no exalternate withinside the international of the donkey, besides for its unfold in greater elements of the international, and there had been simplest moderate changes to its conventional position in agricultural existence. The donkeys that Christopher Columbus took with him to
America (4 adult males and females), mated with horses to provide beginning to the mules that the Spanish conquistadors used to discover the brand new continent. After the independence of America, President
George Washington imported the primary batch of donkeys to America. But the donkey did now no longer occupy its real location in American existence till at some stage in the 19th century, while gold prospectors favored it to the pony and mule, for its capacity to hold system in tough terrain, and for its voluntarism that dispenses with being
led through a rope, because it follows its grasp on its own. But the established order of railways withinside the 2d 1/2 of of the equal century, brought about proprietors of donkeys to launch them into the prairies and deserts, wherein their grandchildren are nevertheless breeding today. Although the primary position assigned to the donkey remains similar to it turned into 5 thousand years ago, and the remedy it gets as well.. the 20 th century witnessed what we will do not forget the best turmoil withinside the records of the donkey. In fact, the symptoms and symptoms of this disease seemed approximately centuries or greater ago, as we stated earlier, while technology showed that the donkey isn't a degenerate horse, and while zoologists performed comparative research that confirmed that this puppy has blessings that exceed what's drawn in minds round it. But earlier than this new medical view of the donkey yielded anything, the economic renaissance got here to enhance its denial and distraction from it, and to strike even its life to the core. In France, for example, the range of donkeys reduced from approximately 800,000 heads to 13,000 heads at some stage in a century and a 1/2 of. Especially with the mechanization of agriculture
after 1945 AD, which delivered the donkey herd to the edge of whole collapse. The equal applies to all commercial societies in Western Europe and America, with out this implying a international collapse, so long as maximum of the international's international locations are nevertheless withinside the technique of development, and rely upon agriculture with its conventional method of residing and survival. As for the excellent transformation withinside the whole records of the donkey, it reared its head beginning withinside the seventies of the final century, while the unfold of emotions of kindness to animals brought about the emergence of institutions associated with the donkey involved with it and calling for a softening of the human view of it.
In what resembles the awakening of conscience, those institutions extended at an awesome speed. In France, their range surpassed twenty, similarly to the established order of a unique museum, the Donkey Museum in Sassi-Lograne. Associations and
corporations for the equal remember had been additionally installed in Germany, Australia, the United States, Canada, Denmark,
Britain, New Zealand, the Netherlands, Italy, Ireland and Greece. And
Switzerland.. In many cases, the donkey departed from its conventional activity in those industrialized and rich international
locations, and changed into a kid's leisure animal, and a home animal from
time to time whose duties are constrained to guarding, or
maybe readorning the garden. Where the donkey nevertheless plays its conventional characteristic in advanced international
locations, the situations of its paintings have distinctly improved. On the Greek island of Hydra, for example, that is inhabited through the rich, the donkey is the simplest method of transportation at
the island, and there are simplest one motorized automobile to acquire waste. Thus, once
we should read, even in 1908 AD, a systematic procrastination of cruelty closer to the donkey, which includes that which got here at
the lips of the zoologist, Professor Emile Tiare, who said: With
the mule and the donkey you ought to strike hard, due to the fact they do now no longer have the sensitivity of the pony, and that they simplest sense while it reasons them Pain.. that is in step with the not unusualplace principles of the maximum backward peasants twenty centuries ago.. the situations have changed, even a little, even though simplest in a few places.
