With domestication of almost all donkeys few species now exist in the wild. Some of them are the African Wild Ass (Equus africanus) and its subspecies Somalian wild ass (Equus africanus somaliensis). Also the Asiatic wild ass or Onager, Equus hemionus, and the kiang, Equus kiang, of the Himalayan upland.
There was one other, now extinct species called the European Ass (Equus hydruntinus) which became extinct during the Neolithic. In the wild the asses can reach top speeds equalling zebras and even most horses.
