The '''Kopion''' is an aggressive, agile predator animal that travels in packs<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/roadmap/release-view/1019-Fauna-Kopion|accessdate=2024-04-03|text=Star Citizen Roadmap, Alpha 3.23.0}}</ref> Kopion are faster than the player sprinting.<ref name=":0">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXIDcsDwUas Inside Star Citizen: Paws and Claws], Star Citizen, YouTube, 9 May 2024</ref> Originally from [[StarCitizen:Ashana]], they are fast and carnivorous, and quickly evolve specialized traits to thrive in different environments by reproducing quickly and in large litters of 5-10 typically twice per standard earth year.<ref>{{Cite RSI|url=https://robertsspaceindustries.com/galactapedia/article/RX39z9OyeP-kopion|accessdate=2025-07-22|text=Kopion - Galactapedia}}</ref> Without careful monitoring, the Kopion often becomes invasive.<ref>{{Cite game|build=Alpha 3.23.2|text=Guide to Stanton Wildlife journal entry|accessdate=2024-11-12}}</ref>

== Characteristics ==

=== Horn ===
The [[StarCitizen:Kopion horn]] is made of a unique combination of bone and naturally-occurring carbon nanomaterials. When properly processed, it can be used to aid in bone regeneration with a far greater rate of success than lab-grown materials. This application has made it a valuable commodity.<ref>{{Cite game|build=[[StarCitizen:Star Citizen Alpha 3.23.0|Alpha 3.23.0]]|accessdate=2024-04-15}}</ref>

=== Eyes ===
It has four eyes.<ref name=":0">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXIDcsDwUas Inside Star Citizen: Paws and Claws], Star Citizen, YouTube, 9 May 2024</ref>
