Mules are the result of interbreeding between a male donkey (Equus asinus) and a female horse (Equus caballus). Thanks to their strength, agility, and endurance, they are the perfect pack animal, according to a Washington’s National Park Fund statement. In fact, mules have been helping maintain the trails in national parks since the early 1900s.

Shoutout to the mule team for keeping Olympic National Park’s wilderness pristine. These mules are incredible! Carrying 200 pounds of gear through the wilderness, that’s some serious hustle.
