Tusken Raiders
A young Tusken Raider gains a bantha mount during warrior initiation rites, and learns to care for the creature. Rider and mount become extremely close as the Tusken earns a place in the clan.
Tatooine
Tatooine's inhabitants use banthas as beasts of burden and prize them for their milk, meat, skins, horns and fur. Banthas have spread to countless other worlds, with subspecies adapted to different climates and conditions.
