Paralope, which are herbivorous creatures that move in groups, originated from the planet Talus.
These creatures, called Paralope, were characterized by a pair of horns curving backwards. Their offspring displayed either gray or black fur. They were frequently observed, and examples of them even existed on Corellia, despite the mystery surrounding their presence there. This is also the case for the majority of Talusian animals that eventually found their way to Corellia.
The acicular defender represented a specific type cultivated to protect the larger group.
