Tie-in Material Information
edit- According to Encyclopedia Galactica (a non-canonical piece of merchandise published in 1979):
- Ovines are four-legged grazing animals raised by the humans of Sectar for food. Their meat is the planet's major export. Thousands of Ovine carcasses are loaded into the hold of a small freighter several times each year. They are flash-frozen by exposure to the chill of space to preserve them on the long journey to the Colonies. [1]
Notes
edit- Ovine is another term for domestic sheep.
