yes the burros will eat from your hand, but one got a little over zealous with me when I ran out of carrots (they're on a special all-carrot diet these days) and chased me across a parking lot. I ducked quickly behind a rusted-out Chevy Impala, and the burro gave up. I wasn't hurt and it was sort of exciting, so maybe it's a reason TO go to Oatman.
