Lice are common in groups of closely managed donkeys, but are less common in more extensive management systems. Both biting (''Damalinia spp.'') and sucking (''Haematopinus spp.'') lice occur in donkeys. Lice tend to be moderately species-specific and it is not clear if these are the same species that affect horses.
