[edit] History
There were very few horax on the planet, due to the severely cold weather, combined with the horax's territorial nature. Each year, the local Nelvaanians would send young males to take a scale from a sleeping horax's tail as a rite of passage into becoming a man. These scales were used to make a special elixir that the Nelvaanians discovered could be used to repel horaxes with its pungent odor. Anakin Skywalker, while searching for General Grievous on Nelvaan, killed a horax single-handedly, inadvertently interrupting a young Nelvaanian's initiation process.
Horaxes ate siltcrawlers.
