      The point is that there’s no reason to think that this particular talking donkey character from a Grimm’s story inspired Donkey in Shrek in any way.

        and the donkey in the bible was only temporarily vocal in order to speak a specific message to one dude. again, no conclusion to be found here, only to point out that OP is misinformed.
