Burro Braying in the Wild

📢 Sound ON!👂
Though Burro Awareness Month has come to an end, we're never done celebrating burros! Today @CarolineChristieArt tells us about wild burro brays!
I believe each wild burro has their own unique bray. Sound, style, and pitch are of supreme importance to communicate the correct message in the wild burro world. Here are just a few that I have come to discover while spending time with these fascinating creatures!:
📣 “Location Bray”: Communicating your whereabouts with other bachelors is key.
📣 “Bossy Bray”: Bachelor bands have a leader that will keep everyone in line.
📣 “Family Bray”: This can also be a combination of a grunt and a bray. This is used if another
Jack is near to his family unit.
📣 “Territory Bray”: A mixture of a gallop and a bray. This accomplishes the direct escort of the
rival Jack out of his territory.... Including a bray just makes it that much more of a spectacle!
📣 “Proud Bray”: Winning the affection of a female Jenny.
📣 “100ft Bray”: This is always a reminder to me as a photographer to keep a healthy distance
from these wild and wonderful creatures. After all, we are in their home, and it’s up to all of us to
keep them wild and safe!
