The saw-toothed grank was a carnivore native to the Gungan Swamps of Naboo. They were a medium-sized species of predator/scavenger with sharp teeth and powerful jaws. To hunt, they sensed vibrations through their hair from both the air and ground. They were the main predators of shiros, capable of breaking through the shell with their large, crushing jaws; sometimes, though, shiros that had formed symbiotic "shiro-trap" relationships with tooke-trap plants could easily camouflage themselves from granks and certain other lethal predators.

They would also occasionally hunt narglatch cubs, though they would fear predation from adult narglatches.

Gungans found the taste of granks very appealing and would fry them. The toenails of granks were used to create Bongo engine parts, while their meat was a delicacy served in high-end restaurants.

On Coruscant, imported saw-toothed granks were sold as zoo animals. Sometimes, like other imported non-sapient creatures to Coruscant, granks escaped and, like Coruscant's escaped imported Anoobas, ranged the lower levels of the city-planet and feasted upon meat-type garbage and unfortunate lifeforms.
