Akurian

From Wookieepedia, the Star Wars wiki.

Akurians, known by their nickname, the Snow Demons, were tall, white-furred sapients similar in height and build to Wookiees, with crests of hair running along their scalps from nose to nape of neck. They were indigenous to Akuria II and aided Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia Organa against Imperial forces stationed on Akuria II around 0 ABY.

After the Imperial garrison was removed from Akuria II, the Rebels allowed the Snow Demons to reclaim their icy homeworld.
