Seeming somewhat moved, he answers that his name is Shrek.ĭonkey tells Shrek he finds him cool and likes his tough attitude, and expresses disgust when they see a swamp, though quickly changes tune when he's told it's Shrek's home. When he tries to bring up his species as a reason to Donkey to leave, he shows no concern or bother over the revelation, and asks for the ogre's name. He continues to walk alongside him, conveying (through song) that he doesn't have any friends, further exasperating the green hero. Quickly growing tired of the mule's presence, he attempts to scare him off by roaring, but Donkey is unfazed, only noting that he needs a few tic-tacs for his breath (which stinks). Grateful and impressed by his help, Donkey follows the ogre and decides to stay with him due to having nowhere to go. Though seemingly displeased, the ogre scares the knights away instead of surrendering Donkey as they order. The guards tackle him, but he escapes and flees into the forest, until he bumps into an ogre. Donkey exposes himself by boasting as he soars upwards, but then the magic wears off, causing him to drop to the ground. Their captain is hesitant to accept Donkey until she proves he can talk, which he refuses to do, causing her to be taken away - however, Donkey accidentally gets hit by fairy dust from a fairy (which Peter Pan was taking in to sell), giving him the ability to fly, much to his joy. Donkey is a gray donkey with brown eyes and a black mane.ĭonkey is first seen on a leash with his owner in a line, where fairy tale creatures are being given to the Duloc Guards for money.
