The krayt dragon was a large carnivorous reptile native to Tatooine![](MyCollection_Unit_Tatooine.jpg) | TatooinePlanet | . Krayt dragons grew continuously throughout their lives to an average length of almost forty five meters and weight of two thousand kilograms. They could live for a hundred years and did not weaken appreciably with age. They could be found in the mountain regions of Tatooine. An ancient krayt dragon was the oldest and biggest of all krayt dragons. A fierce hunter, the krayt dragon became an important part of indigenous cultures on Tatooine. The krayt dragon was thought by some xenobiologists to have descended from the Duinuogwuin (also known as Star Dragons).

The only semi-sentient species known to hunt the krayt dragon was the fabled sand demon.For millennia, the most famous and skilled hunters in the galaxy have hunted krayt dragons for the ultimate prize - the dragon pearl, which was considered exceptionally valuable to the public - easily worth over a hundred thousand credits each.
