==Behind the scenes==
The memorable voice of Chewbacca was designed by Ben Burtt, sound designer for all nine films. Creating Chewbacca's voice was Burtt's first job for A New Hope. He mixed together various animal growls for different emotions, including those of bears. The most heavily used sound came from a cinnamon bear named Pooh. Burtt also used a black bear named Tarik, who died of congestive heart failure, liver disease, and cancer in October, 1994 at the age of 16.Star Wars Insider 24
