Sher Kar

The Sher Kar was the apex predator of its homeworld, the volcanic Outer Rim planet Mustafar. Large and scorpion-like, they possessed six segmented limbs with feet with at least four toes. A Sher Kar's tail was also segmented and far longer than the rest of its body, ending in two black prongs. The creatures' skin was brown in color and scaly, with spikes around the joints on their limbs. The head of a Sher Kar consisted of a large, toothy maw with a large pink tongue inside.

The favored prey of the Sher Kar was the large, egg-laying tulrus, and the predators could often be found deep in their nesting grounds. They were also dangerous to humans and on one occasion a Sher Kar fought two humanoid individuals, one armed with a blaster and the other wielding a lightsaber.
