Description
One of the wild burros or donkeys located in Custer State Park in South Dakota. There are herds of them located in the park and the public can feed them. As a result they come right up to your vehicle and even poke their head inside the window for a treat. Several burros might surround your vehicle making it difficult to continue your journey.
Perhaps the quirkiest thing I discovered in South Dakota was the collection of "begging burros" and bison in Custer State Park, a wildlife reserve in the Black Hills of South Dakota.
The burros are wild donkeys that live in a small section of Custer State Park along the road. They are called "begging burros" because they've become famous for approaching vehicles and expecting food. Many visitors bring crackers to feed them.
