The Kauronians are a race of ape-faced humanoids native to the planet Kauron in the Meram sector of the Outer Rim Territories. In 0 BBY, a number of Kauronian bounty hunters were present on Tatooine and were witnessed by Rodian bounty hunter Greedo entering Chalmun's Spaceport Cantina in Mos Eisley. By 19 ABY, an asteroid belt in the Kauronian's home system hosted the Cavrilhu Pirates; however, the pirates destroyed the base that year using a self-destruct mechanism after it was infiltrated by Jedi Master Luke Skywalker.
