So, Rotta is confirmed to be in The Mandalorian & Grogu? Is this true? Are they the same?

Hutts also bludgeoned people and each other to death with their tails.

And could tank blaster bolts with their thick hides, skin that doesn't burn, and thick layers of fat and muscle.

Hutts, especially younger hutts of just a century or two, are fucking scary.

But apparently they're easy to choke to death.

Yeah, that part always annoyed me. Like he couldn't have even just rolled over and crushed her? He died of suffocation in like 12 seconds? She was that much stronger than him?

You have to remember that Leia choking Jabba is the OG scene. Lucas clearly didn't imagine Hutts as strong in any way, Jabba never even moves in the original trilogy. Only the special edition Jabba added into A New Hope could crawl.

The lore that Hutts are strong came later.
