Herd animals native to Colada.

Wild hasumbuk can only be found near the planet's singular ocean. Quadrupedal and weighing roughly 200 kilograms, they are farmed for their impressive hides, which can be used as gifts for visiting emissaries or other persons of importance. Hard to originally ensnare due to their sharp lower teeth, they now act as both workhorse and profit source for a handful of farmers on Colada. The teeth in their protruding lower jaw need to be manually filed to prevent them puncturing the roof of the mouth.
