A Mule resembles a Donkey in appearance, with its short thick head, thin limbs, and short mane, but it differs in height, neck shape, coat, and teeth. The Mules tower over the Donkeys. While the tail of a Mule is similar to that of a horse, the tail of a donkey is coarse and similar to that of a cow.
