K'Kruhk + Youngling

Ok, during the scene in Episode II when the Obi-Wan is asking Yoda and the younglings about Kamino and i'ts not on the map, there is a youngling in the background who looks an awful lot like K'Kruhk. I was wondering if they were the same species.

vs.

Hmmmm one seems to be rather reptilian

Exactly, that youngling is like a trandoshan or a barabel.

It is the same species- Whiphid- but the character is named Jempa. K'Kruhk was already a Knight by Episode II, having been a Padawan before Episode I and knighted around the time of Episode I.

So they are both Whiphid?

The Youngling looks exactly like a Trandoshan. K'Kruhk looks different.

Jempa is listed as a Whiphid everywhere. He does look very Trandoshan, but he's not.

And K'Kruhk is older. I'm sure you can find some similarities.

Fine then. ermm

definatley Whiphid, like J'Quille in ROTJ and Lady Valerian -GOD i used to be that obsessed when i was 9 LOL?😛

I agree...hes a Whipid. Trandoshans don't have the prominant fangs. and they have a more distinct muzzle and head crests.

However, in your defense, Whipids are supposed to be furr covered (at least their body), apparently it come with age.

"Another famous Whiphid was K'Kruhk, a Jedi Knight during the Clone Wars. Bear Clan member Jempa also belonged to the Whiphid species."
