Porg

The porg is a small avian creature native to the planet Ahch-To. The species will appear in the 2017 film Star Wars: The Last Jedi.

Background
Porgs are several inches tall and covered in feathers (with the exception of their legs). Male porgs are slightly larger than females. The coloring of the porg varies, but the majority have brown feathers with a white underside and orange patches surrounding their eyes. While they resemble normal birds, they have no beak, but rather a snout containing four sharp teeth. They have large black eyes and nictating membranes. Infant porgs are called porglets, and a group of porgs is called a "murder".

Porgs can be found roosting on cliffs of the First Jedi Temple, building nests and flying short distances.

Other appearances
The porgs appear in the Star Wars Blips short series.
