Description:
The sehlat was a giant bear-like beast, native to Vulcan. Sehlats had six-inch fangs and did not like to climb, preferring instead to remain on low ground. Sehlats were patient, persistent predators and were capable of tracking their prey for days at least.
Domesticated sehlats, which were only slightly smaller than wild sehlats, were a popular pet with Vulcan children. Sehlats, however, were very aggressive, so Vulcan children learned early never to be late with their dinner.
Life Cycle & Reproduction:
Viviparous
Diet & Habitat:
sehlats originated in the rain forests of Vulcan's southern hemisphere.

Travellers' Aid Society Advisory:
A sehlat looks something like a giant teddy bear—with six inch fangs. It is not cute—a sehlat can be dangerous as hell. If you make a wrong move, a sehlat will probably rip your arm off, but Vulcans never make wrong moves. That would be illogical.
