Mule Welfare

Mule Welfare is a working animal welfare construct that specifically addresses the physical, behavioral, and psychological well-being of mules (equid hybrids of male donkeys and female horses) in labor, transportation, and agricultural contexts, distinguished by its focus on species-specific adaptations, hybrid physiology, and humane management practices unique to mule populations.
