Today marks the anniversary of the arrival of the first mules from Spain, called Spanish Jacks, on October 25, 1785. They were a gift to the colonies from King Charles III.
Mules are hybrids, half donkey and half horse. The mother is traditionally a horse, and the father is a donkey (also known as a jack).
The first American-bred mules are believed to have originated with General George Washington, America's first president.
Because its hooves are smaller and more upright, mules are suited to the rough terrain and conditions. Unlike horses, mules do not require grain, are less prone to injuries overeating, and tend to live longer.
Though mules may be of either sex, they cannot reproduce.
