The purrgil are among Star Wars’ most mysterious creatures, and Ahsoka has expanded upon their mythos with the journey to the new galaxy. While the Purrgil’s ability to travel through hyperspace has always been impressive, the extension of this ability to traverse new galaxies makes their power even more impressive. However, the question remains, why would the purrgil need to travel so far?Ahsoka, Season 1, Episode 6, “Part Six: Far, Far Away” may have the answer. At the beginning of the episode, the Eye of Sion finishes its journey to a new galaxy and to Peridea. When they arrive, Baylan Skoll comments on legends that the purrgil use Peridea as a graveyard. The Eye of Sion passes through the bones of a purrgil as Baylan relays this tale, seemingly proving the legend true. This legend resembles real world myths about elephants traveling to specific places to die. While these elephant legends have not been proven, they provide a strong new lens to view the purrgil and their culture through as they continue to gain importance in the Star Wars galaxy and beyond.While the purrgil mainly have been based upon whales in past Star Wars works, they do share some other characteristics with elephants. In Star Wars Rebels, Season 2, Episode 15, “The Call,” Ezra Bridger learns that the purrgil migrate in part to feed upon gases that allow them to survive in the vacuum of space and travel through hyperspace. In the real world, as Avni Gupta reports for Wildlife SOS, elephants also often migrate in search of food, increasingly so as their habitats become more and more threatened. In an article for the African Wildlife Foundation, Terry Mukera explains that elephants also have adapted their migration patterns in response to poachers and other human threats, and the purrgil’s adaptations to their routes in Star Wars reflects this reality.RELATED: Ahsoka Solidifies One Star Wars Hero’s Greatest StrengthRELATED: Star Wars Just Introduced a Terrifying New Element to Space Travel
