Porgs are a fictional species of alien animal featured in the Star Wars multimedia franchise. They first appeared in the 2017 film Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi.

Description[]

Porgs are a breed of avian animals with brown and white plummage. They can be found in abundance on the planet Ahch-To where they live in the mountains and build nests on the sides of cliffs.

History[]

In 34 ABY, Rey and Chewbacca came to Ahch-To in search of Luke Skywalker. They encountered several Porgs, and Chewbacca even roasted one as part of his evening repast. Surviving Porgs looked upon him with horror as he was about to devour the dead animal. Chewie felt some measure of guilt and was unable to finish his meal.

When Rey and Chewbacca left to seek out Kylo Ren, several Porgs boarded the Millennium Falcon. This annoyed Chewbacca greatly, as he had to continuously sweep them clear of the cockpit. Other Porgs were found nestled inside the common areas of the ship. [1]

At some undisclosed location, the pirate queen Maz Kanata kept a camp site and was accompanied by a fat and extremely hungry Porg. Other Porgs gravitate towards the camp site as she spun tales of various heroes of the Republic. [2]

Notes & Trivia[]

  • Porg young are referred to as Porglets. Porglets redirects to this page. [3]
  • Porg's were fascinated by shiny objects. Two Porgs decided to inspect Luke Skywalker's discarded lightsaber. Fortunately, neither of them activated it accidentally.
