They are saddled and children up to 16 years of age can ride them. Donkeys can be hired for private parties, involving stressful transportation. They are bred to become working donkeys for nothing. It human entertainment where private "owners" keep the profits. They work from early age till they get very old. Animals are not slaves.

Why it was rejected

It was not clear what the petition asked the UK Government or Parliament to do.

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do. We're not sure if you want the banning just of donkey rides and hires, or if you want to ban greyhound and horseracing too, which is mentioned in the text of your petition but not referred to in the title or background.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.
