Jaur

== Description ==
The Jaur are mammals who originated on a frigid homeworld, and evolved to craft dams even before their ancestors were considered sapient by Federation standards; their teeth have a unique regenerative ability to facilitate the carving of both wood and icehttps://www.reddit.com/r/HFY/wiki/series/the_nature_of_predators. They have silky, silver fur that is mottled with white spots, and patterns of black stripes along their sides. Their tails are black and paddle-like, serving as a defensive weapon. While they do possess standard tail language, smacking their tails against the ground is viewed as aggressive body language by the Federation.
The Jaur Principality is renowned for their architectural endeavors, with even modern buildings using compacted snow due to the unchanging cold on their planet; their world is considered to be one of the furthest on the outskirts of a theoretical habitable zone. Due to their engineering resourcefulness and resistance to extreme winters, the Jaur are able to scout potential colonies that other species would not be able to use. However, hotter temperatures on alien worlds can be life-threatening to a Jaur who lacks an envirosuit.
