Donkeys are creatures who never seem to lack personality. Not only are they cute, but they can also behave in ways that are incredibly funny.

Just take the adorable donkey in this video as they find a hilarious and creative way to scratch an itch that they could not otherwise reach.

Well, when you have to scratch that spot, you have to scratch that spot. And this donkey certainly had to scratch that spot, LOL.

Obviously, this donkey is a very creative creature. They had a problem with an itch in a difficult-to-reach spot, and they found a way to scratch it.

And just look at the way they nodded their head as they wiggled their body during this adorable and hilarious scratching session. Not only was this donkey super inventive, but this entire scene easily qualifies as total cuteness overload!

Is there really anything cuter than watching a donkey scratch themselves against a fence like this? Unsurprisingly, the Internet was head over heels for this adorable donkey and their scratching method of choice.

Many Instagram users commented that this is exactly the reason why fences were invented in the first place, while others remarked on the look of utter satisfaction on this donkey’s face as they scratched their itch.

This Donkey Also Enjoys Picnics With Their Human and Animal Family

As this other video shows, this precious donkey and all of their adorable animal siblings, which include a deer, a miniature pony, a horse, and another donkey, enjoy having a picnic with their human family members.

What makes this clip so wonderful is how everyone cannot stop laughing as the animals crowd around the picnic table to beg for food. But don’t worry, these animals didn’t walk away from this picnic empty-handed.

Later in this video, the man gives food to the horse and the deer, while the donkey hilariously pesters him for some food because they have not been fed yet. Or they have already eaten and just really want a second helping, LOL.

Whatever the case may be, when it comes to scratching hard-to-reach places or begging for food, this determined donkey certainly knows how to make their intentions known, LOL.
