Nope. That would be too easy.

Stobor are wild predators that lived on Haruun Kal, the only inhabited world in the Al'har system, which was bombarded by the imperial navy fleet shortly after the Galactic Empire was established.

The fauna on Haruun Kal included many predators and scavengers. Many of the insects were parasitic. Notable fauna included akk dogs, ankkoxs, branch leopards, fever wasps, Tuskers, Jacunas, Vine cats, Rot crows, and grassers.

Correct?

That wasn't the definition I was looking for, though I didn't know the information you provided.

I was so sure that was it. It was not Star Wars, off to do more research I am...

Stobor is the idea, or the personification of unique dangers for each planet in the galaxy. Space Survival training students are warned to beware of or watch out for Stobor. It keeps them on edge, looking for the hidden dangers of their situation.

Is this correct or just another irrelevant definition?

Ding! Ding! Ding! You win a bottle of Ambien!

Now, what book and author did this come from?

Yay, finally!

Tunnel in the Sky by Robert Heinlein.

I've never tried Ambien. I'd probably be one of the ones that gets up a couple hours after taking it, sleep walks out to the car and drives around town in a zombie like state.

Good work!

I read that book several times in my teens (that was one of Heinlein's book written specifically for the younger crowd) and loved it.
