The Barkbat is a non-sapient species from Orion's Arm.

The Barkbat lives as a large predator of the planet Trees. It cling to the trunks of skywracks, giant tree-like plants native to the planet Trees. It uses its wings in a gliding flight to hunt other creatures in the canopy. It uses its bark-like skin and appearance as camouflage when clinging to skywracks both for its dormant periods between feedings and to gain height.
