The donkey, often mistaken for a small horse due to its similar appearance, may not be the fastest runner, but it is certainly no easy target—even for predators like hyenas.

In a surprising turn of events, an intense battle between a donkey and a hyena was captured on video, and the outcome was anything but expected.

The confrontation occurred near a residential area where the hyena was on the hunt, with the donkey as its intended prey. Approaching the encounter with confidence and underestimating its opponent, the hyena soon learned that it had misjudged the donkey’s strength and intelligence.

The donkey skillfully evaded the hyena’s attacks by running in circles, all the while launching precise counterattacks. Despite the hyena’s best efforts, it was unable to land a single successful blow, eventually letting out cries of pain as the donkey’s tactics prevailed.

In the end, the battle concluded with a surprising and decisive victory for the donkey.
