Donkey Mob Wiki Guide

This Minecraft tutorial explains all about donkeys with screenshots and step-by-step instructions. Let’s learn about donkeys in Minecraft.

Background

A donkey is a variant ofÂ horseÂ in Minecraft. The following is a picture of what a donkey looks like in the game:

Donkey Mob - Wiki Guide 1

Hostility Level	Passive Mob
Health Points	15 health points (up to 30 health points) x 7.5 (up to Â x 15)
Where to Find	In theÂ PlainsÂ andÂ MeadowÂ biomes
Weapon	None
Attack Method	Will never attack you
Drops	Â 0-2 Leather Â 1 SaddleÂ (if equipped) Â 1 Chest (if equipped)
Experience Points	1-3 experience points
Special Skills	Can be tamed and ridden

A donkey can not wear horse armor, but you can put a saddle on a donkey and ride it. You can also equip a donkey with a chest and store up to 15 stackable items.

Hostility Level (Passive)

A donkey is a passive mob. The termÂ mobÂ is short forÂ mobileÂ and is used to refer to all living, moving creatures in the game such as chickens, creepers, and donkeys. Because a donkey is a passive mob, it will never attack you in the game (Creative or Survival mode).

Health Points

In Minecraft, a donkey has between 7.5 hearts Donkey Mob - Wiki Guide 7

and 15 hearts Donkey Mob - Wiki Guide 8

for health, depending on the type of donkey. This gives a donkey 15 and 30 health points (because 1 heart = 2 health points). To kill a donkey, you need to inflict between 15 and 30 points of damage depending on the donkey.

Where to Find Donkeys

In Minecraft, you can find donkeys in theÂ PlainsÂ andÂ MeadowÂ biomes.

If you are having trouble finding a donkey, you canÂ summon a donkeyÂ using a cheat or you can use aÂ spawn egg.

Weapon

A donkey does not carry a weapon.

Attack Method

You are safe to walk near a donkey and it will not attack or cause you any damage. And if you attack a donkey, it will just try to run away. It will not attack you back.

Drops

When you kill a donkey in Minecraft, it will dropÂ leather.

If the donkey was wearing aÂ saddleÂ orÂ chest, these items would also have been dropped when the donkey was killed.

Make sure you pick up any dropped items before they disappear. They are useful and should be kept in your inventory to be used later.

Experience Points

As you play the game, you will gain experience. The most common way to gain experience is by killing mobs. When a mob is killed you will see tiny green and yellow balls appear and move towards you.
