Ok. The point is it should be a species native to Hoth.

ie taun taun

I've decided Wampa is better

I've decided that the Space Worm is best suited to the subject at hand.

There is no logical explanation, but I feel that way.

I vote for the Wampa-Taun. Cross bred Wampa and Taun-Taun. Basically a Wampa that can run a lot faster for a longer period of time.

I'm sold on the Wampa-Taun.

Yeah, me too. I'm converted.

You will make me a believer.

So...there's three options; Wampa, Tatuntaun, and Wampa-taun...how 'bout Chewie?

? Whaaaaaa? chewie? hoth?

How do you figure the wampa can't run faster then a tauntaun as is?

Chewie is Kashyyyk. Remember we are looking for native species.

Tauns Tauns gallop pretty fast once they get going. Out on the snowy surfaces, a Wampas feet are smaller and would dig into the snow more than a Taun-Taun. Plus I imagine they wouldn't be able to run for long distances without running out of breath soon.
