Ganjukos were large creatures from Fenn with beaks and thick coats of hair. They were known to stampede at a moment's notice. Their beaks were prized, as they could be crafted into expensive daggers. In pre-Republic days, they were spread to other worlds in Dufilvian sector as well as worlds in Bothan sector such as Kothlis and Bothawui.
Biology and appearance
The creatures had massive layers of fat covered in dark, thick fur in order to retain heat in frigid climates. Their skull plates and beaks were made of very hard cartilage and were used for attacking or digging in ice. Their eyes could be protected by retractable cartilage lids and the creatures often preferred to use sound and smell over sight during fights.[2]
