Video: Working Smarter… Not Harder

This video is SO long ear.

Sometimes donkeys get a bad rep for being stubborn, lazy or perhaps suspicious — but we at Horse Nation prefer to think of them as clever, thoughtful and aloof, using their intelligence to work out a situation rather than over-reacting (like, say, many of their more elegant horsey cousins).

The long-ear motto may, in fact, be “work smarter, not harder.” Watch these four fellows: the first two find an easy escape without burning any excess energy, but that third donkey… genius material.

Do we have any long ear fans in Horse Nation? Shout out in the comments!

Go donkeys, and go riding.
