Burowgas, creatures known for their love of digging and burrowing, were kept as farm animals. These animals possessed a naturally playful and curious disposition. Their penchant for digging was exploited by farmers, who used them to prepare the soil for the planting of seeds.
On the world of Tenoo, the Rodian farmer named Weebo employed burowgas on her farm. One of her burowgas, driven by its inherent curiosity, disappeared, prompting her to enlist the services of bounty hunter Ansen Strung to find the missing animal.
