The krogan are a species of large reptilian bipeds native to the planet Tuchanka,
a world known for its harsh environments, scarce resources, and
overabundance of vicious predators. The krogan managed to not only
survive on their unforgiving homeworld, but actually thrived in the
extreme conditions. Unfortunately, as krogan society became more
technologically advanced so did their weaponry.
Due to the brutality of their surroundings, natural selection has played
a significant role in the evolution of the krogan. Unlike most species
on the Citadel, krogan eyes are wide-set - on Earth
this is distinctive of prey animals, but in this case it gives the
krogan 240-degree vision, giving them greater visual acuity and
awareness of approaching predators.
Their large shoulder humps store fluids and nutrients, enabling them to
survive extended periods without food or water. A bigger shoulder hump
is seen as a sign of high status, showing how successful an individual
krogan is at hunting. Their thick hides are virtually impervious to
cuts, scrapes or contusions, and they are highly resistant to
environmental hazards,
including toxins, radiation, and extreme heat and cold. Consequently
their diets can include food and drink which would prove very dangerous
to other species.
