Question: In a movie with talking ogres, pigs, mice, wolves, and all sorts of animals, why is everyone so surprised to find a talking donkey?
Chosen answer: Who is "everyone"? The only person surprised he can talk is the one human who is processing the fairytale creatures for banishment, and this was used as a plot device to highlight a joke (between him flying and talking).

Fiona also says "it talks", after he "saves his ass."
To be fair, she was locked in a castle for the majority of her life, so she wouldn't know that donkeys would be able to talk.
And yet he wasn't the only one surprised by it; watch the scene again and Fiona was surprised, too.
