Duke & Tom6
Visitors ! Duke the dewback and Tom the tauntaun made their way to the steps to Bonnie's basement apartment. I left the photos unedited and with the original titles.
The dewback is a creature featured in Star Wars: A New Hope. Native to the desert planet Tatooine it served as transport for the Imperial forces. A massive reptile over two metres tall, it derived its name from a habit of licking morning dew from its back.
The tauntaun is a Star Wars creature native to the artic world of Hoth. It is a large biped with reptilian and mammalian traits that was used by the rebel forces as transportation.
I find it somewhat amusing that these creatures were employed as some of the high tech vehicles of Star Wars failed to function in these planets' extreme environment. I surmise our Toyota HiLux ( Tacoma over here) truck would run well on either planet.
