Coruscant rodents were a type of rodent native to the Core Worlds planetThe High Republic: Light of the Jedi Coruscant and liked to eat the flowers within the gardens of the Jedi Order's Jedi Temple. On at least one occasion after the Alcedian Jedi youngling Tep Tep arrived at the Jedi Temple after leaving the Outer Rim planet Valo in 229 BBY,The High Republic: Beware the Nameless establishes that Tep Tep was stationed at the Coruscant Jedi Temple after she departed Valo, an event depicted in The High Republic: Escape from Valo. The events of Escape from Valo take place one year after the destruction of Starlight Beacon, which equates to 229 BBY per Star Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia. the human Jedi youngling Jamil Sollis found Tep Tep—who had a special Force connection to animalsStar Wars: The High Republic Character Encyclopedia—playing with the rodents.
In 228 BBY, as Sollis went to find Tep Tep in the Temple, he mentally noted that if he did not find her playing with the Coruscant rodents, he would find her in the youngling dormitories or within the cargo hold of the research ship Innovator in a hangar. He found the Alcedian in the cargo hold.
