"Mon Cala's cultural archives are most disturbing, mistress Rey…to settle a disagreement, it's a fight to the death or submission. Usually the remains of the loser were fed to schools of razor-mawed krakanas!"
―C-3PO, to Rey[1]

Krakanas were carnivorous creatures that existed on Mon Cala. In the culture of the Mon Calamari, the remains of those who lost in ancient rites of challenge were fed to krakanas.[1] A Mon Calamari saying went that "a wounded krakana can still bite."[2] The creatures were the namesake of the Mon Cala Krakanas, a Huttball team.[3]

Behind the scenes

Keelkana-CWUSB

The creature featured as the logo for the Mon Cala Krakanas[3] actually more closely matches the Legends depiction of a similar Mon Cala deep sea eel, the Keelkana,[4] instead of how the EU Krakanas were presented.[5]
