The '''Holographic Zoo of Extinct Animals''' was a museum on [[Coruscant/Legends|Coruscant]] that showed holographic dioramas of extinct creatures hunting, feeding and fighting in their natural habitat. The most popular animals among visitors were the [[krabbex]] of [[Dac|Mon Calamari]],<ref name="TCSWE">''[[The Complete Star Wars Encyclopedia]]''</ref> the [[snow falcon]]s of [[Rhinnal/Legends|Rhinnal]], the [[Manticore (creature)|manticore]], the [[Singing fig tree|singing trees]] of [[Pil Diller]], and the [[mantabog]] of [[Malastare/Legends|Malastare]].

There was a change of ownership following the [[Clone Wars/Legends|Clone Wars]] that made the zoo a pumped-up, sensationalist approach to attract a larger crowd. It featured blinking stars and a narrator that said, 'You will experience forgotten wonders from a long time ago and far, far away!'

Following the destruction of [[Alderaan/Legends|Alderaan]], many of its creatures were displayed in the zoo. These included many species of Alderaanian [[Thranta/Legends|thranta]], such as the [[Great thranta|great]] and [[Pilotta thranta|pilotta]] varieties. Holograms of the [[Alderaan furry moth]] and [[stalking birds]] existed as well.
