Yeah, my only experience is just talking a little to the drivers. They all had the standard horseman's protective affection for their beasts, as far as I could see -- although a few were downright rude to people around them. And those I saw all looked healthy and as content as any equine in that sort of job ever does. (It's hard on them -- not so much the work itself -- more the waiting around, and the people who want to pet them.)
Uh oh -- talking about it, now I want a mule... Don't anyone tell my husband, 'k?
