overloading a donkey cart

Poor Eeyore! He was just trying to be a good donkey, until his over-zealous owners overloaded his little cart and now he looks like a schmuck. I think his owners need to replace ol’ Eeyore with a heavier donkey, dontcha think? I mean that makes sense from a physics point of view. Right?

Since many people in the underdeveloped areas of the world can’t afford a car or small truck, they really rely on animals like horses and donkeys to transport goods. Because these animals are so valuable for these people’s livelihood, you would think they would be treated much better. Doesn’t seem to be in this case. I found a video on YouTube of more Arabs overloading their donkey cart. It’s hilarious to watch, but after awhile you feel sorry for the poor donkey pulling so much weight. I guess that’s what they’re capable of doing though.
