Details
A mule is the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse. Horses and donkeys are different species, with different numbers of chromosomes. Of the two F1 hybrids between these two species, a mule is easier to obtain than a hinny (the offspring of a male horse and a female donkey). All male mules and most female mules are infertile. The size of a mule and work to which it is put depends largely on the breeding of the mule's dam. Mules can be lightweight, medium weight, or even, when produced from draught horse mares, of moderate heavy weight. An aficionado of the mule claims that they are "more patient, sure-footed, hardy and long-lived than horses, and they are considered less obstinate, faster, and more intelligent than donkeys." The mule, easier to breed and usually larger in size than a hinny, has monopolized the attention of breeders[citation needed]. Reproductive success occurs more often when a donkey is the sire and the horse is the dam. A stallion can be allowed to run with a jenny for as long as six years before she becomes pregnant.[citation needed] Mules and hinnies are almost always sterile (see fertile mules below for rare cases).
