The Wild Donkey was domesticated around 4,000 BCE. The donkey became an important pack animal for people living in the Egyptian and Nubian regions as they can easily carry 20% to 30% of their own body weight and can also be used as a farming and dairy animal.
In America the donkey was found useful as a pack animal by miners, particularly the gold prospectors, of the mid-1800s. Miners liked this animal due to its ability to carry tools, supplies, and ore. As donkeys lost their jobs, and many were simply turned loose into the American deserts. Descendants of these donkeys now wild can still be seen roaming the Southwest today, like in Oatman, Arizona.
