During the Galactic War, the endangered snow falcons of Rhinnal were a rare and prized delicacy worth a small fortune to those willing to risk life imprisonment hunting them.
Following the extinction of the snow falcon, these avians could be seen only in the Holographic Zoo of Extinct Animals in New Republic City on Coruscant. The snow falcon holo-diorama proved to be one of the more popular attractions in the Zoo. Not much was known about these extinct animals, but researchers hoped to reconstruct them by fossil DNA. Scientists theorized it could be done by transferring DNA from the fossil into the embryos of a similar species.
