Elephoth
Canon Linked from 8 articles
An elephoth was a massive, quadrupedal creature with a pair of tusks, green and thick hide, small red eyes, and two greenish trunks, covered with moss and vines. The All Terrain Armored Transports used by the Galactic Empire were described by some to bear a resemblance to steel elephoths on stilts, with laser cannons instead of tusks.
The legs of an adult elephoth were said to be as thick as the trunk of a hornbeam.
During his training on Dagobah, Jedi apprentice Luke Skywalker, his mentor Yoda, and the astromech droid R2-D2 encountered a mother elephoth who attacked them to protect her child.
