Description
This cute little donkey was encountered as we trekked up the mountain to Lycian Ruins in Kaunos Turkey.
A beast of burden is an animal used for carrying heavy loads or pulling heavy equipment, as a donkey, mule, or ox. The reason for the title of this image is how I saw many donkeys being used in Turkey for carrying burdens from one destination to the next. This animal obviously was staked out by a villager for safe keeping until needed for a chore required by his owner.
