The Star Wars galaxy is teeming with life. Every planet contains its own unique ecosphere, which is carefully balanced and unique in every way. When talking about Star Wars, conversations often dwell on the planets and their biomes. Indeed, fans are fascinated by the range of planetary terrains, from vast deserts to hostile volcanic landscapes. Each dangerous and tranquil biome contains its own lush flora and complex fauna. The minds behind the Disney-owned franchise have used their mastery over prosthetics, set design, CGI, puppetry, and animatronics to bring these plants, planets, and crucially, animals to life. Whether it’s on the screen, in a comic book, or through a video game, audiences are discovering new ways to interact with these intriguing creatures.However, despite the work that goes into crafting and imagining these animals, the Star Wars brand has a complicated relationship with the wildlife in the galaxy. There are certainly many angles to explore when it comes to discussing Star Wars animals, and so many of them have been featured in crucial narrative arcs. There is definitely a change sweeping across Lucasfilm when it comes to how the creative minds approach the use of these animals, which has shifted significantly from past years. Arguably, animals are now more important than ever and are finally being represented as a key component of the Force. It’s taken a while to get to that position, though.It has always been somewhat of a complex point to analyze. The Jedi are supposed to represent peace and balance in the Force, and yet they seem to have no problem taking down these animals. It’s unclear how many creatures have been killed in their skirmishes, with the Clone Wars and Galactic Civil War becoming destructive for many stunning planets. While the inclusion of these animals is always a great way to show off the practical effects and the other techniques of these movie-making magicians, the reason for their inclusion doesn’t always align with the ethos of the Jedi. It’s no wonder that characters like Ahsoka Tano have preached against the Jedi’s teachings and claimed that the Order is full of hypocrites. Very rarely has a Jedi gone out of their way to also defend the wildlife of a planet, with the narrative focus usually placed on the way the people are being affected by a conflict. These are complex times and discussions on the environment are prevalent in many media materials. Star Wars should really have entered that conversation earlier and firmly made a point about the protection of these diverse species.
