The ikopi was a fleet-footed ungulate with telescopic legs for fast locomotion. They lived in the plains and swamps of Naboo and its moon Rori and they traveled in herds.
Characteristics[]
Ikopis had short necks, for defensive purposes. They compensated for that with a tube-like tongue, roughly two to three times longer than their head, to reach food far above their reach. The tongue was hollow, which allowed them to suck up water, or nectar, like a straw. When not being used, the ikopi's tongue would coil up inside a sack in the animal's cheek.
