Onager
The onager, also known as hemione or Asiatic wild ass (Equus hemionus) is a large equid of the family Equidae (horse family) native to Asia. Unlike most horses and donkeys, onagers have never been domesticated. They are among the fastest mammals, as they can run as fast as 64 km/h (40 mph) to 70 km/h (43 mph). Previously listed as Endangered, they have been classified as Near Threatened by IUCN in 2015.
The onager is closely related to the African wild ass, as they both shared the same ancestor. The kiang, formerly considered a subspecies of Equus hemionus, diverged from the Asiatic wild ass and has been acknowledged as a distinct species.
The onager formerly had a wider range from southwest and central to northern Asian countries, such as Israel, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, Russia, and Siberia. During early 20th century, the species lost most of its ranges in the Middle East and Eastern Asia. Today, onagers live in deserts and other arid regions of Iran, Pakistan, India, and Mongolia, including in Central Asian hot and cold deserts of Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and China. Other than deserts, it lives in grasslands, plains, steppes, and savannahs.

Love Keeps Calling
by: Annagraceoh oh oh
oh oh oh
Hear the echos trough the night
Memory of a lucky night
See reflections of my life
I know I can heal I can heal from the pain inside
Many ways to turn away
But if I'm wrong than the pain will stay
Drive the bitch into the light
I've gotta learn from the pain inside
Love keeps calling my heart
Love keeps calling my heart
I spread my wings and fly away
Fly away from here
Love keeps calling my heart
Love keeps calling my heart
I spread my wings and fly away
Fly away from here
Paid the toll to see the shore
Don' wanna carry this weight no more
See the dark clouds in the sky
I know I can heal I can heal from the pain inside
Cause I don't want this to hurt no more
Time to look for an open door
Drive the bitch into the light
I've gotta deal with the pain inside
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh
Love keeps calling my heart
Love keeps calling my heart
I spread my wings and fly away
Fly away from here
Love keeps calling my heart
Love keeps calling my heart
I spread my wings and fly away
