Choada_Boy Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Tauntauns are the dolphins of Hoth. Quote
Choada_Boy Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Tauntauns are 2 m (6.6 ft) tall bipeds, indigenous to the ice planet Hoth. Tauntauns are covered with white fur, downturned horns, four nostrils, and have a foul body odour. They are omnivorous, subsisting off lichens found in hoarfrost as well as eating mushrooms and other fungi found in ice caves. They give birth to two young at a time, twice in one Hoth year. They are used as mounts by the Rebel Alliance, and have been exported offworld to other cold-climate regions (including Coruscant's polar caps) for use as mounts, beasts of burden, and tourist attractions. The thick layers of fat and fur provide adequate protection from the cold during the daytime, but tauntauns cannot survive the plummeting night temperatures without shelter. Tauntauns are sometimes preyed upon by the wampa. Quote

olyclimber Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Tauntauns were a species of omnivorous reptomammals who were indigenous to the icy planet of Hoth. Tauntauns were genetically similar to Kybucks and featured a mix of traditionally reptilian features, such as a lack of mammary glands and scaly skin. They were also warm-blooded, covered in fur (which ranged from gray to white), and gave birth to live young; mammalian characteristics. Known subspecies included the glacier tauntaun, climbing tauntaun, and the giant tauntaun (also referred to as the common tauntaun). Tauntauns possessed numerous evolutionary adaptations to the bitter, cold environs of Hoth. Those adaptations included wide feet for running across icy surfaces, swiveling ears, thick blubber, chambered lungs and dual nostrils that warmed incoming air, and a digestive system that excreted wastes as oils through skin pores, producing a distinctive odor. The most important feature of tauntaun physiology was their unique blood mixture that was resistant to the tundra winds and kept their organs from freezing. Despite these adaptations, tauntauns sought shelter at night to avoid the extreme nighttime temperatures of Hoth. When shelter was unavailable, they used their evolved ability to hibernate during low nighttime temperatures. Some tauntaun breeds actually froze to death if awakened after sundown. When not eating fungus and lichens found in hoarfrost, tauntauns ate ice scrabblers and Hoth hogs. Tauntauns were matriarchal animals and lived in herds of twenty to thirty individuals. Horn-butting matches were common among both males and females who hoped to establish dominance. Tauntauns were able to give birth to two young at a time, which would occur twice within one Hoth year. Though they lacked mammary glands, tauntauns could regurgitate a form of "milk" produced in their crops. I THINK THIS "MILK" SUBSTANCE SHOULD BE RESEARCHED.T Quote
LandShark Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Duh, we all know Land Sharks don't exist. Hey CBS, I gotta a flower delivery for you at your front door. Send your wife. Do you have any oreos? Quote
olyclimber Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 HOLD ON. I WONDER IF SAR CAN USE TAUNTAUN "MILK" TO WITHSTAND THE EXTREME COLD. I'M NOT A CLIMBER AND I DON'T UNDERSTAND BASIC FUNDAMENTAL LOGIC, BUT I THINK THIS IS WORTH A SHOT. WHAT DO YOU THINK? Quote
G-spotter Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 Worth one shot or two? Or a double-pump mint venti tauntaunmilk frappuccino? Quote
LandShark Posted December 20, 2006 Posted December 20, 2006 I've heard Shark milk is a delicacy in China if you wanna try some. Just back off the fins man. Quote
TrogdortheBurninator Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 This is my favorite thread ever. I speculate it is everybody else's favorite thread ever because I am an expert. Quote
EWolfe Posted December 21, 2006 Posted December 21, 2006 I HEAR TIED-OFF TAUNTAUNS WORK GREAT FOR RESCUES FROM 1/2 MILE DEEP CREVASSES. PLEASE FORWARD THIS IMPORTANT INFORMATION TO YOUR LOCAL SAR. Quote
