One of several genetic subtypes of graul, the Graul Mauler is a larger, even
more-aggressive version of the creature.
These nasty, non-native creatures are spreading so rapidly across the plains of
Dantooine that even criminal elements that slip onto the planet are rumored to
be offering substantial cash rewards for the eradication of their lairs.
Graul Maulers appear to be a subtype bred by the Geonosians specifically for
their combative qualities. Commandos and others expert in the use of explosive
ordnance report that they seem considerably more resistant to their weapons
than conventional grauls, while naturalists who have studied their effects on
the environment report that their aggresive approach to combat will intimidate
even the largest creatures. In addition, these creatures appear to have
acquired (or perhaps have had bred into them) a knack for using their long
appendages to cripple their victims in order to make it easier for them to be
subdued.
These are the largest subtypes of Graul that appear to be capable of
reproducing. Disastrous as it may seem to have these gigantic predators roaming
an ecosystem unchecked by natural enemies, it is well to note that things could
be much worse, were the other, much larger and far more dangerous variants of
this breed to suddenly exhibit the ability to reproduce.
