This worthy farm and sanctuary is home to 19 assorted equines — including three mares and their foals saved from slaughter, two rescued mustangs, plus mini-horses, mini-donkeys, a hinny and a mule.

A mule is the offspring of a male donkey and a female horse, and a hinny is the offspring of a male horse and female donkey.

North Carolina’s growing horse population has a dark side - cases of abuse and neglect, including the 29 horses, five donkeys, one hinny and one mule now living at Pasture Pals.

A female donkey is called a jenny, so combine it with a horse and you kind of get a hinny.

Fat rascals are not dissimilar to singing hinnies and were added to represent the lesser-spotted but very much included male members of the group.
