A therii was a large herding creature that could be found on the planet Batuu. Elee was a therii that was the pet of Black Spire Outpost resident Salju.^[3]

Biology and appearance

Therii had floppy ears and two tusks. Their hoofs had two toes and their coats were soft reddish-brown fur. They were herbivores that mainly ate leaves and stems.^[1]

Behavior

The species used their ears as a means of expression. They flapped them to show contempt.^[1]

Behind the scenes

The therii was introduced in the children's book Elee & Me, written by Amy Ratcliffe and published in 2020.^[3] As Elee reminded Ratcliffe of a woolly mammoth, she based the name therii on a mammoth binomial name.^[4]

The species itself was created for an unbuilt third attraction for Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge often informally referred to as "the Bantha ride", where guests could ride a full-sized animatronic Elee around Black Spire Outpost, a concept which was eventually dropped for budgetary reasons.^[5]
