Donkeys can carry many additional crates.
Type	Animal (Mount, Pack)
Capacity

The donkey is a pack animal that can carry 3 crates. It can be mounted, which will allow it to fight and reduce the base Sanity cost of travel, at the cost of some carrying capacity. Many explorers start with a donkey in their party, and more can be acquired in some native villages.

Notes

• Animal: Has no skills and can only be promoted through Alexandra David-Neel's Animal Whisperer perk.
• Mount: Can be ridden to reduce the base sanity cost of travel. When mounted, gains an additional combat die and the Slow Mount perk at the cost of -1 total Cargo Capacity.
  • Combat dice given when mounting can not be used when over-encumbered.

Tips

• Donkeys are by far the worst pack animals an expedition can have:
  • They are tied with the raptor for lowest cargo capacity but are worse mounts and much weaker in combat.
  • They are, along with the camel, the weakest combat animals, but camels are better mounts and have better cargo capacity.
  • All other Slow Mount animals have some sort of advantage over donkeys.
