Netcaster

The netcaster was a highly dangerous arachnid native to the homeworld of the Wookiee people, Kashyyyk. The average length of the netcaster would often be 75 centimeters. They would spin webs among the tall trees of their native environment which would trap their usual prey, namely the daubirds. When attacked or confronted by dangerous predators, the netcaster would use its highly venomous bite to protect itself.
==Behind the scenes==
Netcasters were set to appear in an episode of Star Wars: The Clone Wars, but the show was cancelled before the episode could be completed. A clip from the episode featuring the netcaster was shown at Celebration Anaheim in 2015 where eight of the creatures attacked several Wookiees and Clone Force 99 on Kashyyyk. The netcasters were shown to be a primitive, aggressive race, and were able to spit a spider-like web from a frontal appendix. All eight of the netcasters were killed, being unsuccessful in their attack against the Wookiees.
