Jabba the Hutt's home on Tatooine is an unlikely place. The immense building beyond the Dune Sea is seemingly in the middle of nowhere, and it's on a planet that isn't exactly known as a hotbed of any kind of activity other than Podracing. In this case, location isn't everything because despite geographic challenges, Jabba has the credits and influence to attract quite the variety of denizens. Jabba's throne room seems as crowded as the Mos Eisley Cantina, and when we enter the Hutt's palace, we meet a bevy of new aliens and creatures for the first time.
RANCOR
It’s all too fitting the repulsive Jabba would own a creature that slobbers more than anything else in the galaxy. Rancors are massive beasts with claws and a frightening amount of teeth. Their saliva is probably riddled with bacteria, too. Yuck. Gross and terrifying aspects aside, I feel sorry for the rancor we meet in Jabba’s palace. The giant creature doesn’t seem to have enough room and has been trained to be vicious.
