As Pico’s owner watched him play, she noticed that he wouldn’t leave Mom’s side the entire time he was running. Even though there was plenty of room within the enclosure, this baby donkey kept scampering in circles around his mother. As it turns out, he had a very calculated reason for this. He wanted some milk!
Unfortunately, it seemed like Mom wasn’t too keen on this idea. Even when the baby donkey started nipping at her, she wouldn’t allow him to feed. So, the little guy decided to start running around the pen again. That is, until he remembered how hungry he was. Then he went back to biting.
“You little rotten thing, she can’t feed you right now,” his owner reprimanded him.
Eventually, though, this baby donkey’s zoomies proved too much for Mom. She ended up letting him have a drink of milk after all. It looks like Pico’s plot to annoy his mother into feeding him worked! However, it probably didn’t win him any points with her.
Watching Pico running in circles around his mom was especially funny because of his unpracticed little legs. At the very beginning of the clip, he was going so fast that he lost his footing and skidded across the ground! However, he recovered from this near-faceplant pretty well — enough to keep tormenting Mom, at least. We have to hand it to him: this baby donkey is nothing if not determined!
