When the dark side is weak in the galaxy, Terentateks hibernate and remain dormant for many years, only to return when the dark side is strong again. It has been theorized that they were once Rancors, subjected to mutations by the Sith. The tusks and claws of a Terentatek are highly venomous.
They also have massive claws (three to a hand). Terentatek resemble rancors, except they have a number of broad spines growing from their backs and a pair of flaps, or tusk-like projections attached to their mouths.
