Common term here for these animals is donkey although ass is also correct. The hairy one below is the daughter of the one behind, they are born extra cute and hairy and gradually lose it over a year or so till the summer coat is as you see the mother.
Winter coat is hairy again but only annual.
Of coarse there are Donkeys that come from colder climes that are hairy all the time, some here in Australia but not ours.
Back to the float, these are primarily horse floats where the owners will go to a multi day show /event, and sleep over with shower, toilet and cooking facilities on board.
The Donkey bits are instantly removable and with the installation of a winch we have Austin transport for the next hub rally (er not allowed to call them rallys anymore, sounds too competitive)
