Bantha

"Watch out kid, this thing handles like a drunken bantha."

- Han Solo, as he piloted an AT-AT.

Banthas were a species of hairy mammals that lived in the deserts of the planet Tatooine. Those social herd animals were used as loyal pack animals by the Tusken Raiders. Banthas were quadrupeds with bright eyes and and trampling feet. While all banthas were peaceful herbivores, they had a pair of sharp, spiraling horns that grew from their skull.

Bantha were the subject of at least one saying: "wild bantha chase."
