Question
I have a jack(male donkey)that is acting aggressively towards me only. He will put his ears back. He tries biting. He also stands up on his hind legs and tries attacking me with his front feet when I get in his pen. He don't do this to my daughter or husband. What can I do about this aggressions towards me?

Answer
You must have done something to cause this.  Jack's remember and once they target you for something you did, they normally do not forget.  You can try to make amends with food, bring him a carrot everytime you go see him, but he if he has decided that you are going to hurt him or be mean to him, you may be out and only your daughter and husband will be able to handle this one.
