Canths with stripes were a species of fish that lived in the ocean on the moon called Kef Bir; they were a marine animal. Company 77, a band of human deserters from the First Order, used sea skiffs to fish for striped canths, as well as blubs, to obtain food. The waters where they did their fishing were full of both types of creatures, and on a good day they could fill both of their skiffs. The fishers would then return to shore and cook the animals they killed over [fires](/article/fire], making sure to use everything they harvested, not just the meat.
Pablo Hidalgo wrote Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker: The Visual Dictionary, a reference book from 2019, which was the first time striped canths were mentioned.
