What Kind of Species Are Yoda and Grogu?
Unfortunately, the kind of species Yoda and Grogu are is unknown, though the Star Wars community simply refers to them as “Yoda’s species.” Alternatively, Yoda and Grogu can be described as “tridactyls,” due to having three fingers and three toes. To be fair, that isn’t surprising. Yoda first appeared in the original Star Wars trilogy, simultaneously being the first representation of his kind. And before Grogu had a name, he was simply referred to as “Baby Yoda.” They’re not the only examples though. Before Grogu, there was:

What links all the examples of Yoda’s species together, including Grogu, is that they’re Force-sensitive, short, have three fingers and three toes on each limbs, and live incredibly long lives. Yoda was 900 years old when he died; Grogu is only 50 years old. Not even George Lucas knows where Yoda’s species comes from or the finer details of their history. On an episode of Moviefone, George Lucas is on record stating: Honestly, Disney should keep it that way. Does every mystery have to have an answer? The kind of species that Yoda and Grogu are is better off being an enigma. But if you want some answers, go find out which Star Wars character you are.
