Rancor pygmy

The rancor pygmy was a subspecies of rancor that lived on Dathomir and was smaller than normal rancors. Rancor pygmies were discovered on Dathomir after the Battle of Yavin. Some bioengineers claimed that they were an artificially engineered species that had escaped into the wild, but others disagreed with this theory based on the creature's genetics and breeding details. A fringe group also claimed that the rancor pygmies were the result of Nightsister magic, but this theory was generally discounted. In 1 ABY, rancor pygmies were spotted in Nightsister territory and near the Forgotten Spire.
A rancor pygmy was featured with a white-haired Human woman and the slogan "See New Worlds!" on a recruitment poster for the Galactic Empire.
