From the Movies

Loud and odious beasts with tough skin and hardy builds, falumpasets are found wandering the swamps and forests of Naboo. The native Gungans use the animals as beasts of burden. Falumpasets haul battle wagons and the catapults of the Gungan Grand Army into the battlefield, and Boss Nass uses a decorated falumpaset as a ceremonial transport.

From the Expanded Universe

The herbivorous falumpaset roams the Naboo swamps in family groups consisting of one bull and four to seven cows and their young. Their long legs are perfect for wading into deep waters, and they are capable swimmers.

Two specially trained Gungan handlers are required to properly control a falumpaset. According to Gungan fables, such handlers aren't allowed to form close relationships with other beings lest the stubborn falumpasets grow jealous and even more ornery.

Behind the Scenes

In The Phantom Menace, the falumpaset is a computer generated creation seen during the Naboo swamp stampede and in the Grand Gungan Army sequences. The falumpaset's coloring was inspired by that of an Appaloosa horse.
