The Balearic, Catalan: Ase Balear, Spanish: Asno Balear, is a Spanish breed of domestic donkey indigenous to the autonomous community of the Balearic Islands, in the Mediterranean off the eastern coast of Spain. It is found mainly in Mallorca, the largest island of the group, and also in Menorca, where it was much used for mule-breeding; it is no longer present in the islands of Eivissa and Formentera.[4][5] Since 2006 it has been officially called the Raça Asenca Balear; it was previously known as the Raça Asenca Mallorquina,[6][4] and was also referred to as the Ase MallorquÍ, Asno Mallorquín or Mallorquín.
