Jungle rancor was the name given to one of a number of rancor subspecies bred by animal dealers.

Characteristics

Jungle rancors

Jungle rancors on Felucia

Notable distinctions from the common rancor were its brightly colored skin, sharp spines that ran along much of its body as well as its tongue, and webbing between its fingers. The jungle rancor also had much larger jaws than the common rancor.

History

One of these creatures was used by a crime syndicate on Teth to dispose of its enemies.

Jungle rancors were also found on the jungle world of Felucia. After crash-landing on the planet, Anakin Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi and Ahsoka Tano crossed paths with two of the large beasts. Strangely, nearby villagers did not seem to be threatened by these rancors. [2]

Behind the scenes

In Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Jedi Alliance, a jungle rancor can be found on Dathomir, though the species is native to Teth.
