Farmers in Turkey have come up with a novel way to stay connected to the Internet.

They are strapping solar panels to donkeys and using them as mobile charging points.

Each panel produces enough energy to charge phones and laptops.

You could call it the latest in wearable tech... at least if you are a donkey.
