The Kur forests[1] were located in[3] the Kur Minor system of Wild Space.[2] They featured thorn vines, an infamous poisonous plant.[1] At some point by 2 ABY,[4] the Human scout Casti Tholon made a trek through the Kur forests. In the process, she was severely cut by the thorn vines, acquiring numerous scars on her head, arms, and lower legs.[1]
Behind the scenes
The Kur forests were mentioned in Alliance Intelligence Reports, a 1995 sourcebook for West End Games' Star Wars: The Roleplaying Game.[1]

(backup link) (screenshot) Jason Fry, co-author of The Essential Atlas, stated his intention to create homeworlds for numerous species based on context implied from their names. Given this principle, this article makes a similar basic assumption for the Kur forests in relation to the Kur Minor system.
