So, hello! This is the computer mule driver from the South team, and today I offer you a little tour of the world of mule influencers (influencer being a portmanteau term). In our case, this term will group together anyone who talks about mules on the web, near or far.
Today's goal: to introduce you to accounts of mule enthusiasts across each continent and fill your social networks with long ears!
This list comes from my little personal research and the update of a previous article on the blog. I will forget some important names. Do not hesitate to let me know in the comments so that I can update the article!
On this little warning, let's take off for our first stopover: South America.
South America: Land of the Saddle Mule
For this first stopover of the World Tour, we are in South America, land of the saddle mule. On the program, mainly Brazilian, with a touch of Colombian and a zest of Mexican. It is possible that South America is our first stop by favoritism on my part, being myself an admirer of their Marchadores mules which have a class that does not leave me indifferent.
Muladeiros
This is the biggest mule account in South America, with over 300,000 followers! On this account, you will mainly find ads for mules and mules for sale, accompanied by photos that make you dream. There, the mules are intended for work with livestock and are the result of crossing the famous Pega donkey with Mangalarga mares.

Ana Paula Brito
This is Miss Brazil, if I followed the story correctly, she is the one behind the Muladeiros accounts. She organizes and covers a multitude of events in the world of the Brazilian mule!

A lomo de mula
For our next country, I suggest a little detour to Colombia with the YouTube channel A Lomo de Mula. If I understood correctly, A Lomo de Mula is a Colombian television show that talks exclusively about mules! If you understand Spanish, you will discover a multitude of fascinating information about the small world of mules in South America. Including a report on mules used as surrogate mothers!

David Alonso
And to end our little tour of South America, we take a detour to Mexico with David Alonzo. David Alonzo is a trainer who works a lot with mules. Our "muleologist" Muriel Hérion is full of praise for him. Once again, if Spanish is your thing, go for it!

Amérique du Nord : La mule, reine des ranchs
To be honest, I'm not an expert on North American horse culture, but I've done a little research on the place of mules in this region. So what do mules do there? Well, they're mostly found in transport activities (the famous "packers"), trail rides, sometimes in cattle sorting, and a discipline specific to this country and their mules "L'extreme Mule Riding"
Ready to take off for North America? Let’s go! 🚀
Broncks and Doncks
I discovered these happy elves on YouTube with their cattle drive videos. On their site, you will find:
hunting videos where mules are used to transport carcasses,
cattle drive videos, where the goal is to round up the cows.
Authentic and immersive content for lovers of North American ranching!

TS Mule (ou Ty Evans pour les intimes)
If I understood correctly, Ty Evans is a real "mule whisperer". His podcast dedicated exclusively to mules is a goldmine. If you understand English, go for it without hesitation! You will learn everything you need to know about this world.

Queen Valley Mule Ranch
With his Texan grandpa look, Steve Edwards hosts a YouTube channel full of practical advice on mules: how to seal them, how to understand them, and much more.
On his website you will find a whole bunch of equipment and training courses to buy personally the avaloire melts my eye!
Elise mulerider
It was when I came across this account that I told myself that we had to spread the good word of influencers specializing in mules. On the program: videos, short photos, all wrapped up in an Instagram account that makes you want to discover the world through two big mule ears.
Elise started sharing her daily life on a ranch in Canada. If I understood correctly, it was at this time that she had her first contact with mules.
Their Social Networks
Paul Garrison
Paul Garrison: He is a big name among the Americans who talk about mules on the Internet. I remember my first years surfing and coming across his videos, very interesting, but not understanding anything because I spoke English like a Spanish cow hahaha. But if you understand English well it's worth a look!

Bob Smith Natural Elements Horsemanship
More discreet, but very interesting with his original approach, Father Bob is doing us the honor of joining France to lead courses all over France! If you are interested, you can find out about the dates of these courses on this Facebook event! Legend has it that he is a JF Pignon of the mule, and to see if the legend is true, do not hesitate to come and visit one of his courses, as a free auditor or accompanied by your big-eared companion.

Europe : Passion et traditions muletières
The old continent is full of mule enthusiasts, they don't run the streets but I assure you if you look you can find a whole bunch of beautiful things a little everywhere in Europe. Come with me we'll go for a ride
Muriel Herion
We join our national Muriel Hérion, who brings us the passion of the mule in a magnificent cone of fries (I try to make French humor). But more seriously, Muriel Hérion passionately documents the world of mules. Her social networks are currently dormant, but who knows what will happen?
Florence Hurlet (Planet Ster)
Yet another Belgian, they are everywhere! This time, Planet Ster has made the mules shine in TREC (magnificent discipline) by joining the national team!
Ellen Cochrane
We stay in northern Europe with Ellen Cochrane, who shares her daily life with her mule in England. Work and moments of complicity, she highlights the beauty and intelligence of these divine beings.
Enrico Maria Scolari
Lidia Moya Garcia
Here is a new one that I did not know until recently. It comes to us straight from the country of horses, bulls, but also mules: Spain. On the menu, we will find Doma Vaquera on the back of a mule, with a beautiful beast that, I imagine, must come from an Iberian mare and an Andalusian donkey (these are only suppositions!).
Their Social Networks
And elsewhere in the world?
If you know other profiles or key personalities in the world of mules, let me know by leaving little comments on this post! This will help us update or create a next article.
