But apparently can't spell "canon" correctly. =)
When the Bothans take over it will be much like the novel 1984, and I will replace the way you foolish people spell things with all the way I spell things. Then, everything I do will be right. So there.
in all honesty...my spelling is horrible. and the sad thing is that I'm an English major...and I just don't care about spelling anymore.
Wow, this was the wrong question to ask. So many stubborn bothans out there.
Well, I am the original poster, and I've made my decision: Rodian!
They're just so much cooler, and seem more the hunter type. I tried playing a dog (bothan), and I just felt as if my character should be playing fetch instead of SWG. So Rodian it is.
As a side note, frills are awesome! Can master IDs give other frill patterns that are not possible at character creation?

What exactly makes us Nature-haters?
See here
We don't transplant plants because we respect a planet's natural ecosystem, and realize that by introducing new Flora to a region could have severe consequences to the regions's natural life cycle.
Suppose the primary food of a Gurk is the berries found on the small bushes around lok. These bushes require a certain nutrient found in Lokian soil. Well, if you bring seeds from some Endorian bushes from the Endor desert onto Lok, those new bushes could possibly use up all the available nutrients in the Lokian soil, thus killing off the berry-bearing bushes of Lok, and those eliminating the Gurk's primary food source. The Gurks would gradually get thinner and thinner, until they begin to die off due to lack of food, and could eventually become extinct.
So your Bothan "nature-loving" is in reality a very careless way of treating each planets' fragile ecosystems.

No Bothans actually died to gather that information. The Rebellion was told that to get extra compensation money. They're all on a beach-front planet sipping fruity drinks and the one Bothan that stubbed his toe is being tended to by a plethora of nurses.
I think it's time to send in a Squad of the Elite Newpaper Storm-Squad to that planet. They'll all be equiped with the Sunday Edition of the New York Times, tightly rolled up, with an Imperial-issuedrubberband to prevent unrolling.
Unfortuately when they purchased information from the bothan spy-netto find this planet they were directed to a rather unstable volacano planet.
They have not yet returned.
You misspelled Trandoshan.
