A young Wookiee was stationed on the Galactic Society of Creature Enthusiasts' Youngling Care Space Station, which acted as a daycare program for younglings and was run by the Safari droid M1-RE, also known as "Miree." The droid was tasked with the study and supervision of all the younglings, including the Wookiee. Segments with the younglings were recorded for viewers on the HoloNet. The youngling was featured in the first of these recorded segments, and was additionally present in those of his fellow younglings, including that of an Ewok youngling. During the Wookie's segment, Miree used several tactics in order to attempt to help the Wookiee control its temper problems.

Biography[]

Stationed on the Galactic Society of Creature Enthusiasts' Youngling Care Space Station, a young Wookiee was cared for by the resident Safari droid M1-RE, also known as "Miree," who focused on studying the behavioral treatments for each of youngling present on the space station. Fellow Safari droid SF-R3, requested that Miree record segments on the^[1] HoloNet^[2] where she could showcase segments and provide information to viewers on how to care for younglings of various species.^[1]

The Wookiee's segment[]

Sometime during or after 34 ABY,^[3] Miree began the first of the segments, which would focus on the proper care of the Wookiee. As Miree addressed the HoloNet viewers through her cam droid CAM-E, the Wookiee formed a stack with the use of several multicolored discs. After the stack fell apart however, the Wookiee began lying on the floor and crying. Miree took the opportunity to introduce her recommended tips to deal with tantrums in young Wookiees. Her first tip to the audience, was to have a young Wookiee take deep breaths. Now in a different room of the station, Miree and the Wookiee sat on two neighboring chairs. Miree instructed the Wookiee to inhale and exhale with intent on meditating. However, when the Wookiee exhaled, its powerful breath left both CAM-E and Miree disconcerted. Having decided to move on, Miree next caught the Wookiee playing with a toy ball. However, when the Wookiee threw the ball at a wall, it bounced and hit them. Miree and CAM-E decided to braid the Wookiee's hair, with Miree relaying her next tip that braiding a Wookiee's hair would calm them down. With use of a mirror, the Wookiee looked at their reflection and liked their new hairstyle. Next, the Wookiee and CAM-E played a game in which the two danced around the station's jukebox, until Miree turned off the music in which case the two would race to sit on a nearby chair. When Miree turned the jukebox off, the Wookiee, now with braids out, raced to the chair but was beaten by CAM-E. In a rage, the Wookiee kicked the chair from under the cam droid and began jumping around in a fit. Miree relayed her final tip to the audience, stating that Wookiee's can't resist a snack. She presented the youngling with a Wookiee Cookie, with the youngling at with joy as they ate the cookie. Miree congratulated the Wookiee on learning to control their temper, but stated that the Wookiee needed to learn to control their temper. The two hugged before Miree ended the segment.^[1]

The Ewok's segment[]

In the Youngling Care Space Station's room themed after the forest moon Endor, the Wookiee pushed a fellow Rodian youngling on a swing. Meanwhile, Miree and CAM-E were present, trying to record a segment on a shy Ewok youngling. After Miree failed numerous times in order to break the Ewok out of its shyness, she noticed the Wookiee and Rodian, as well as two other younglings, playing. Miree beckoned the group to all come play with musical instruments which Miree had previously used in her quest to lure the Ewok from hiding. The Wookiee selected the drums and grabbed a stick to begin banging on it. As Miree expected, the music lured the Ewok from the tree which they were hiding. The Ewok joined the group and led a musical procession with the rest of the younglings, having stopped being shy.^[4]

The Gamorrean's segment[]

While Miree recorded a segment on one of the Wookiee's fellow Gamorrean youngling, CAM-E captured footage of the Wookiee youngling rolling a ball back-and-forth with a fellow Jawa youngling. As the two played, the grumpy Gamorrean youngling ran kicked their ball away, causing the Wookiee and Jawa to go running after it.^[5]

The Rancor's segment[]

Sometime after, the Wookiee played with the Ewok youngling and the two stacked up the multicolored discs present within the space station. A rancor youngling passed by, jumping high and knocking down the other two youngling's stack. The encounter left the Wookiee annoyed, and Miree would later take the opportunity to record a segment, teaching the rancor to play in a gentle manner.^[6]

The Gungan's segment[]

While swimming in the water of the Youngling Care Space Station's room based on the^[7] planet^[8] Naboo, a Gungan youngling, who was native to the planet, swam past the Wookiee at a fast speed. The Wookiee was taken aback, and shortly after Miree recorded the Gungan's segment for her HoloNet videos.^[7]
