M'onnok

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

The Monnok was a dangerous, semi-sentient desert predator from the world of Socorro. Intelligent enough to create spears, clubs and some simplistic tools, the monnok were respected by Socorran nomads for their hunting ability. It is not believed, however, that the monnok had developed a true language. These mostly solitary hunters stood as tall as 2.3 meters and lived primarily on a diet of druyza and mutrioks. They were mostly found in the Rym Mountains and Doaba Badlands of Socorro.

Smugglers considered the sight of a monnok to signify the beginning of a dangerous but greatly rewarding journey.

The Monnok was represented as a holomonster playing piece in the game of dejarik.
