Donkeys have been important to humans for thousands of
years, being the primary source of work and transport for many cultures. Unlike
horses, evolutionists knew little was known about the origin and domestication
of donkeys. Todd et al. sequenced the genomes of modern and
ancient donkeys and found evidence of an eastern African origin over 7000 years
ago, with subsequent isolation and divergence of lineages in Africa and
Eurasia. The authors also reveal the imprint of desertification on divergence
among groups and specifics about donkey breeding and husbandry, including
selection for large size and the practice of inbreeding.
Donkeys are mentioned in the Bible, and they have been mans helper for ages. but the timing of 7 ,000 years is a mistake, because this happened regardless of the Flood of Noah's days, which happened some And the origin of donkeys proberly took place in the Near East.
