"Kowakian monkey lizards—biggest pain this side of the galaxy. I hate those things! Hate 'em!"
―Poe Dameron[src]

Kowakian monkey-lizards, also known as Kowakians, sometimes referred to as monkeys, were a race of non-sentient reptilian creatures often used by members of the underworld as pets. Owners of Kowakians included Jabba Desilijic Tiure,[5] Hondo Ohnaka[4] and Emil Graf.[6] They were capable of using weapons such as the blaster and, in the case of Pikk Mukmuk, a pirate tank.[3] They were related to the much larger Kowakian ape-lizard.[9]

Society and cultureEdit

Kowakians are born from eggs and live in trees. In the wilderness, they live as packs and are not commonly seen alone. Despite the groups not being very organized, the monkeys seemingly assign some with different duties to maintain where they live.[10]

The leadership within a pack usually goes to the eldest female.[10]

HistoryEdit

"If you value that creature's life, you should tell it to never again do that in my presence."

Kowakian monkey-lizards were impish creatures hailing from the planet Kowak. They were known for their shrill laughter and sophisticated senses of humor.[1] A notable Kowakian monkey-lizard was Salacious B. Crumb, who served as court jester in Jabba's Palace during the reign of the Galactic Empire.[11]

Around 34 ABY, Kowakian monkey-lizards were imported to the planet Batuu and sold as pets in the Creature Stall at Black Spire Outpost.[12]
