And here’s the info about tauntauns: They are a species of non-sentient reptomammals native to the snowy plains of the ice planet Hoth. They were used by members of the Rebel Alliance after they domesticated some of them at their new headquarters on Hoth. They were used as patrol mounts when their vehicles could not cope with the very cold weather. Jabba the Hutt kept a stuffed tauntaun head in his palace beside Han Solo, who was at the time frozen in carbonite.

Han Solo in Star Wars: Episode V – The Empire Strikes Back: (cutting open his dead Tauntaun and shoving Luke inside) “This may smell bad, kid, but it’ll keep you warm until I get the shelter up… Ugh. And I thought they smelled bad on the *outside*.”
