Handsies were a species of primates native to the jungle moon Wevo. The species' name was given to them by aspiring scientist Avon Starros while she was stranded on the moon with several others. Possessing multi-colored fur, six limbs, and long tails, they lived on a diet of fruit. Handsies took shelter during Wevo's persistent acid rains, before emerging in the daytime to eat. One handsy, Chiri, was briefly adopted as a pet by Jedi Padawan Imri Cantaros before it was killed.[1] In 229 BBY,[2] multiple handsies lurked around the ruins of Lonisa City Zoo on the planet Valo.[3]
