Next On Animal Planet: The Wildlife Of Star Wars?

They wander through many a movie or story in the Star Wars universe, but how much do you really know about creatures like the Dewback or Womp Rat? The other day, I was wondering if the Sarlacc was indigenous or if Jabba had it moved to Tatooine and, if so, what did it eat when Jabba wasn't mad at people? Well, The Wildlife Of Star Wars: A Field Guide, by Bob Carrau and illustrated by Terryl Whitlatch may just have my answer.

According to GeekDad, "Entries are organized by planet, beginning with (what else?) Tatooine and ending with Coruscant and covers eight worlds — Naboo gets three chapters to itself. In addition to known facts about individual wildlife, there is a wealth of wisdom that's added to the mythology. For example, did you know that Mynocks are silicon-based and reproduce by fission?"
