Israel maximum card/ maxicard/ carte maximum: ibex goat from Ein Gedi nature reserve on the Dead Sea coast

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ein_Gedi

"In the summer of 2005, nearly two-thirds of the oasis burned to the ground after a tourist dropped a lit cigarette onto the park grounds."

While most everybody takes a holistic approach to preservation of the whole oasis, that tourist took an assholistic approach. What a butt-head...

BOARD OF DIRECTORS, CEOs, ASSes - I could make this into dorincard kit#3.

This is a postcard available commercially, as you can see from the backside.

It's supposed to be a visual metaphor, is it not?

Leaders of all sorts come in all types, colors and values. Some are good, some are bad.

Your preferred negative example of a leader might deserve an AVATAR like an ass (or mule?) from the postcard.

Are those entities in the above image...asses (donkeys)? Mules? Horses? Zebras?

Don't ass-ume that you can horse around, walk on zebras and kick ass - it may be hazardous.

"Mules are generally less tolerant towards dogs than horses are.^{[citation needed]} They are also capable of striking out with any of their hooves in any direction, even sideways if needed.^{[citation needed]}

Mules exhibit a higher cognitive intelligence than their parent species - horses and donkeys. This is believed to be the result of hybrid vigour, similar to how mules acquire greater height and endurance than either parent. ^[8]

Mules are highly intelligent. They tend to be curious by nature. A mule generally will not let the rider put it in harm's way. However, the stereotype of the mule as being stubborn is somewhat unfair and inaccurate."

I hope you know an ass when you see it. I mean a donkey.

But do you know the difference between all of them, especially between a mule and a hinny?

[Can't you go to wikipedia.org by yourself? Why am I doing this?]
