Leaf-tail
From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.
Leaf-tails were a small rodent species native to the planet Dagobah.
Leaf-tails had membranous leaf-like tails that aided in balance and camouflage. This is from where their name is derived. They also had expandable cheeks used to gather food — typically cyanoberries. They had great agility which helped them jump from tree to tree.
The rodents were the main prey of creatures such as Bogwings.
