The Rapacc is a strange, bird-like creature native to the desert planet of Tatooine featured in the Star Wars universe. With a singular eye situated in the middle of its head, large wings, small a set of legs, and a tough shell-like carapace, the dense sandy habitats of the harsh desert ecosystem are perfectly suited for the Rapacc. This creature perches on cliff faces and rocky outcrops, lying in wait to ambush its unsuspecting prey.
In terms of the Star Wars timeline, the Rapacc has not been featured heavily but have made brief appearances, mostly in video games like "Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order". Creatures like the Rapacc are integral to fleshing out the biodiversity and environmental realism of the Star Wars planets, adding depth and richness to the in-universe lore.
