Taming beasts

Taming beasts was an ability of the Force that allowed its user to connect mentally with a wild animal. During the First Battle of Geonosis, Anakin Skywalker used the Force to tame a ravenous reek in the Petranaki arena. At one point during the Clone Wars, on the planet of Ryloth, Obi-Wan Kenobi used that ability to tame and control a pack of voracious gutkurrs, luring them into a trap. Many years later, Ezra Bridger also used it with a dangerous fyrnock at Fort Anaxes. Bridger, however, connected with the dark side of the Force in summoning such a powerful creature and the experience left him drained. Taming a creature in such a way required letting go of one's inhibitions and opening oneself to the power of the Force.
