Plot summary[]
SF-R3 ("Aree") and CAM visit the Batuuan wilds to see if they can teach porgs new tricks. While climbing a high mountain, they are followed by a Batuuan braga bear. The droids eventually find a group of porgs whom Aree attempts to teach how to sit with a training clicker. However, he causes one of the porgs to jump into the sky and land far away.
Aree then teaches the porgs to dance. However, one of them spins into the ground, churning up dirt. Aree then decides to teach them simpler things such as waving hello. However, this prompts them to jump up. Aree then attempts to teach them how to play dead. However, the porgs see a braga bear and flee out of the cave. The two droids flee out of the cave. Later, Aree remarks that he learnt from the porgs to run when he hears the roar of a braga bear. He then flees the bear a second time. Later, Aree lists some fun facts about porgs.

Star Wars Galaxy of Creatures — "Porgs" features porgs on Batuu, a species that Star Wars: Tales from the Galaxy's Edge establishes were not present on the planet Batuu until the Resistance brought them there between the events of Star Wars: Episode VII The Force Awakens and Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge. Therefore, porgs must have been introduced to Batuu between those stories, which corresponds to 34 ABY per this reasoning, meaning that the events of Star Wars Galaxy of Creatures take place during or after 34 ABY.
