Donkeys are typically stubborn creatures and wander aimlessly over the ground. A donkey's behavior usually consists of a few steps of movement then stopping to look at its surroundings before resuming its aimless movement. When stopped, a donkey will, at random, bray. Younger donkeys have a higher tone than when mature. Donkeys do not have a particular pattern to their movement and are able to climb [[block]]s that are at most a one-block change in height.

While donkeys have no innate fear of blockheads, they will attempt to flee from one that has attacked them. Adult donkeys tend to be slower than young ones and actually "run" slower than a blockhead can pursue. | While donkeys have no innate fear of blockheads, they will attempt to flee from one that has attacked them.

In doing so, a blockhead will climb and mount the donkey and dangle the carrot on a stick in front of the donkey to coerce it walk. The donkey walks at a faster pace than a blockhead by foot and is controlled by tilting the game device in the direction of travel. Donkeys are also able to jump over small obstacles and over changes of height that are up to at least three blocks high by swiping the game device UP while tilting the game device in the direction of travel. | ||

If there is a solid block above the donkey, the rider's head will appear to be inside the block but will take no harm. | ||
While riding a donkey, a blockhead will continue to [[Harvesting|pick up]] loose [[item]]s it passes in front of. Note that as of [[Game updates/20131010|version 1.4]], the rider is fully elevated one block above the ground.

Donkeys will swim if ridden into [[water]]. They aren't terribly fast swimmers, and sometimes appear to be completely submerged. It may be necessary to make a donkey "jump" to clear an underwater rise. | |||
