Bantha

The Bantha is a creature species in the Star Wars franchise that first appears in the 1977 film Star Wars: A New Hope. They are natives to Luke Skywalker's home planet of Tatooine and often used as a mode of transportation by the Tusken Raiders, who they share a mystical bond with. They were also instinctively herbivores.

Official description[]

“Banthas are large, furry mammals that travel in herds through Tatooine's desert wastes. They serve as mounts for Tusken Raiders, and the two species share a close, almost mystical bond.”
