Dalyrake

Dalyrakes were a large arachnoid species from Talus.
==Biology and appearance==
Dalyrakes were multi-limbed arachnoids native to Talus, but also prevalent on Corellia. They lived both on land and in water, using two of their stalk-tentacles as lures for food animals, stabbing them with a poison barb when they approached. They primarily ate fish, small reptavians, and tabage. If cut, their hides secreted black toxin. When they died, they instinctively lunged as a form of death-spasm.
Their meat was considered a delicacy.
A subspecies larger than the common dalyrakes was the giant dalyrake.
==Behind the scenes==
Dalyrakes appeared in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game developed by Sony Online Entertainment and published by LucasArts, prior to its closure on December 15, 2011.
