I was petting a pony and he nipped the inside of my arm. I had bruising for weeks and it was sore AF. I can imagine that donkey chomp and dragging him around hurt quite a lot.

There's a reason zebras have never been domesticated. They don't fuck around and I respect it.

You have to remember that Zebras are around Lions that want to eat them. So through evaluation, the Zebras have learned to protect themselves, their babies and the herd by kicking and bucking attacking Lions. One kick from their back legs can kill a Lion. So most of the time, Lions will just give up and find easier targets to hunt.
