Pig rodent

Pig rodents were a species of large rotund herbivorous creatures, native to the planet of Dathomir. These animals had clawed feet, large rodent-like incisors and long whiskers on their snouts. When scared, they could run very fast from danger through the underbrush.

Pig rodents were often hunted by rancors. Dathomiri witches sometimes used pig rodents as a bait for catching wild rancors in snares.
