Teenaxi (Earth-2180)

The Teenaxi are a species of diminutive humanoids from Teenax, and were governed by the Teenaxi Delegation. Paranoid and naturally aggressive, the Teenaxi remained neutral during the Clone Wars.

History
During the Clone Wars, the Teenaxi Delegation chose to stay neutral. The United Galactic Federation attempted to pledge the Teenaxi's alliance to the federation by offering them an artifact via Captain James Kirk.

However, the negotiations went awry when Blaggar, leader of the Teenaxi Delegation, convinced himself that the artifact was a trap, and in panick, the Teenaxi started to swarm and attack Kirk in panic. The captain was able to return to the UGF Enterprise alive.

Biology
The Teenaxi are very small in stature, being about a third of the size of an average Human, making them shorter than even Yoda. They have large, expressive eyes and mouths, as well as short, stubby hing legs that allow them to walk quadrupedally.
