🐎Kiang
Kiangi (Equus kiang) on suurin villiaaseista. Se on elinvoimainen laji, joka luokiteltiin aiemmin aasianvilliaasin alalajiksi. Lajia tavataan Tiibetin ylängön ja lähialueiden vuoristoniityillä ja aavikkoarojen keitailla. Se syö niittyheinää, saraa ja suokasveja. Kiangin säkäkorkeus on noin 150 cm. Eläimen pää on muodoltaan tylppä, ja päästä harteille ulottuva harja on tuuhea ja jäykkä. Väriltään kiangi on muita Aasiassa eläviä villiaaseja tummempi. Karvoitus on selässä ja kyljillä punertavanruskeaa ja vatsapuolella valkeaa. Väriraja tummien kylkien ja vaalean vatsan välillä on jyrkkä.
