Boma
Bomas were ravenous beasts native to Onderon and its moon Dxun. Although most bomas were generally small, there were some that were extremely large in size, as experienced by the Jedi Exile and her companions while exploring the moon. They were dangerous predators and known to kill Mandalorians, but they themselves were preyed upon by the zakkeg beasts.[1]
Jedi Knight Tott Doneeta used his Force ability to communicate with animals to use some bomas in order to get into Oron Kira's citadel.
Behind the scenes
Edit

Bomas were first introduced in Knights of the Old Republic sub-series of Star Wars: Tales of the Jedi series of comics.
In a Video game Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords, the main character called the Jedi Exile, learned a Force power called Beast control by taming a large Boma in the jungles of Dxun moon.
