Quenkers spotted on Tatooine

Date: 290707
Planet: Tatooine
Region: Farpoint Valley

Story: (Written by the Galactic News Agency, Ramona doesn't write IC).

Quenkers, large, dangerous vermin, are native to Dantooine, where they are considered a plague. They are especially infamous for their acid-spitting abilities, which has caused a number of inexperienced hunters who thought themselves safe at range to die. Dantooine residents know usually not to take them lightly.

However, a few days ago, a pack of them was spotted on Tatooine, near a havaried sandcrawler, trapping the jawas inside until help arrived from the nearby town Farpoint Valley. By using a high-powered rifle, bait, and explosives, the quenkers and the obstacle holding the sandcrawler up were dealt with, and the Sandcrawler was able to make it to Farpoint Valley, where the jawas repaired it and conducted several trades.

Since then all quenkers remaining in the area have been shot, or so local hunters claim, but their origin remains a mystery.
