Bosmer live in numerous natural dwellings within the mighty branches of the city, along with Orcs, Imga, and Centaurs.
Arboreal rodents, known as Kollopi, live and feed exclusively only on the most tender branches of the graht-oaks.The Red Kitchen Reader At the time of the annual harvest in Valenwood, colonies of Imga monkeys gather these little mice by leaping around beneath the shade of the graht-oaks and picking the Kollopi from their perches.
