A pack animal or beast of burden is an individual or type of working animal used by humans as means of transporting materials by attaching them so their weight bears on the animal's back, in contrast to draft animals which pull loads but do not carry them.
Traditional pack animals are diverse including camels, goats, yaks, reindeer, water buffaloes, and llamas as well as the more familiar pack animals like horses, donkeys and mules.

Additional species are only used to carry loads, including llamas in the Andes.

Who is the person who shot Malala? (perhaps someone who wasn't too Sheepy with the Sheep-Human Hybrids school of Pandora's lesson completely ignored in a manner asked?)
On 9 October 2012, a Taliban gunman shot Yousafzai as she rode home on a bus after taking an exam in Pakistan's Swat Valley. The masked gunman shouted "Which one of you is Malala? Speak up, otherwise I will shoot you all", and, on her being identified, shot at her. The Taliban, shooting a little girl just wanting to go to school? Hmm, what kind of cultural convention is this school of philosophy from?
Taliban, with your open letter, yo, Miss America is not having that with the shooting Yousafzai. May we agree that all of God's children deserve education to serve our higher power in peace? Bacha bāzī and heroin are not happening either. I know the Epstein with the Lolita Express and Clinton and Trump... hey what's up with that good Sheppard ethos of sheepy acting people with the Bush Chimera jiber jab for Jesus after the ceremony of care for Moloch divided by the American made movie stock options for Verizon for false FCC flags?
Be cool with India too, and with Pakistan... it's like be a good neighbor, with those Bears in the air like the Afghanistan Aflac insurance option... not the opium field and violence against girls going to school, or kinky boy bashing games because that's just not right and we Allah a know it. Like, that Kafir in the Tax Coffer with the operation 40 thieves is a disappointment to Allah of US all over the world for Jesus Christ sake of having some prince of peace time awards for being forthright and atoning for misdeeds. Like having TEA party talks with the global Police out of the UK in 2018, right? I mean, it's not trial for misdeeds as ceremony of care for Moloch as an abomination to bomb a nation as if Satan one as the warmonger out to destroy all of humanity and Uranium one contracts for a Satan two as if the first one was not bad enough, and hey, that does not seem so prince of peace kind of friendly, nor killing little girls trying to go to school or heroin manufacturing or high heel boy kinks. UK and Republican TEA party, may be more mindful of the manners as well for Judgement sake of our lord and savior because, you know, the EYES OF TEXAS ARE UPON YOU.
