Grogu is a fictional character from the Star Wars Disney+ original television series The Mandalorian and The Book. He is a member of Yodas species, which is unnamed and shrouded in mystery. Grogu appears to be the youngest known member of Yodas species, and he is developmentally an infant despite being 50 years old. Members of Yodas species are small, carnivorous, humanoid creatures with light green skin, tridactyl hands, elfin ears, and ridges on their foreheads. They have a lifespan of hundreds of years, which is why Grogu still appears to be a baby. Despite their slow aging, members of Yodas species are capable of using and manipulating the Force, and they have an exceptionally strong connection with it.
