Redditors Gushed Over a Happy Donkey Receiving Hugs from a Friend

A perfect example of happiness brought by a hug is a donkey from a Reddit post. Zx2_ shared the video with the caption, “here’s a happy donkey.” And it was so evident in his face — the donkey was happy and content in the embrace of his human friend. Aside from the embrace, he really loved the behind-the-ear scratches and the small kisses he got. Throughout the clip, the donkey’s eyes were closed out of contentment — wearing a contagious smile that you’ll want to see over and over again. Redditors couldn’t help but gush over the short clip. The comment section was filled with adoration with people expressing how they wanted a donkey for themselves.

MisterGuyIncognito commented, “I grew up around horses but not donkeys. I was shocked when I recently I noticed how cute donkeys are. I’m 45.” Indeed, they are lovely animals, and one of the reasons why being an animal lover makes a lot of people happy. Watching the 19-second clip will leave you smiling and feeling warm. The background music even made the Reddit post more uplifting. Although you aren’t the one enveloped in a tight embrace, you’ll feel your body release high levels of oxytocin. You can also share the Reddit post with your loved ones. They might need a reason to smile even when the day isn’t going their way.

I strive to learn and excel more in content creation, including blog writing, graphic design, social media posts, and video editing. Photography is one of those skills that I take an interest in. However, I do not use my photography skills for work as I treat the activity as my hobby. My usual subjects are my pets and loved ones. The lovely fur babies at home make photography even more fun, especially now that I am in a remote setup for work.
