The Mongolian Wild Ass (''Equus hemionus hemionus'', also called '''Khulan''') is a subspecies of the Onager found in Mongolia and northern China . A population of several thousand animals exists and is therefore not considered (critically) endangered. Hunting of the wild ass has been prohibited in Mongolia since 1953 , but the animal is still considered vulnerable because of increasing human populations. Conservation areas have been established to protect the wild ass. REFERENCES
