Sureggi were a species of amphibians used as mounts on Kashyyyk.

Roaming the jungles and marshlands of Kashyyyk, the sureggi were one of the most stable and sure-footed creatures native to the planet. With upward of 30 legs, sureggi could grow to 20 meters long.

Physically, they had a broad, shovel-like snout and a high-ranged dorsal region. Their skin was dry and durable. With their strong hides, they could carry cargo that was too awkward for other pack animals. Sureggies had thick tentacle-like sensory organs in their noses, and "whiskers" that could detect grubs for food and determine safe routes while carrying passengers or cargo.

Sureggies were able swimmers, could breathe underwater and were unable to drown. While they couldn't defend themselves from all aquatic predators, they could still maneuver through water to avoid danger during stream or river crossings.
