Harvorisk

Along with the havrap, whit which it has no relation, the harvorisk was one of the few animals, native to the planet Quesh, that was capable of surviving its toxic atmosphere. After its discover, the harvorisk was hunted by Hutts, who considered it alternately an exotic new pet and a tasty meal. But, due to its rapid rate of breeding and vicious behaviour, the Hutts decided to get free of them, releasing them into the wild. It was presumed that these beasts could survive the planet's toxic atmosphere thanks to a genetic modification that could allow them to survive the pollution at the cost of half their lifespan.
