The Dagobah python was a species of snake native to the planet Dagobah. It lived amongst the gnarltrees that were commonly found in the world's swamps, and was capable of swallowing up to fifteen times its own weight in food.[1]
Behind the scenes
The Dagobah python first appeared in the Star Wars Legends sourcebook The Wildlife of Star Wars: A Field Guide, which was released in 2001 and written by Bob Carrau and Terryl Whitlatch, the latter of whom also illustrated it. The pythons were confirmed to be canon when they received mention in the sourcebook Star Wars: Absolutely Everything You Need to Know, which was released in 2015.
