      Return of the Jedi came out in 1983. Rancor have only been around for 39 years. New Hope came out in 1977 which was only 45 years ago so I personally have no clue where you're pulling 55 years from.

    I love how everytime he says "This one was larger than most other rancors" he proceeds to show clips with them scaling basically the same to smaller than normal rancors in comparison to humans. Love love love the video, it's just odd

    The problem animals have in Star Wars is that people feel awkward about having the same animals on different planets (although there's plenty of ways for wild animal species to get spread across the galaxy), and the bulk of planets in Star Wars don't get much revisiting, so we don't see most of the biosphere. Kashyyyk is a rare example where we see different parts of the biosphere because there was all this talk about it being Coruscant but with trees (so most of the surface of the planet is forever shrouded in darkness beneath canopies), but then in Revenge of the Sith we get to see some beaches and oceans.
    Anyway, I prefer Zillo beasts.

      I could imagine with a history as long as the republic's that many different species would be spread throughout the galaxy, both intentionally, and unintentional stowaways. I've always enjoyed the unique animals, especially in the EU.

      Well, it makes sense for a Rancor to be owned by a Hutt, since the Hutt Cartel rules over a considerable part of the Galaxy and it's probably relatively easy for them to get one.

    There was a Rancor in the second Darth Bane book. It was twisted by a cybernetic plague that turned living creatures into monsters and had a blaster cannon arm, a jetpack and claws that made Bane grateful it was in such disrepair or he might have needed an army to deal with it.

    My favorite monster alien in the SW universe has been the Krayt Dragon. Usually you don't even see them alive, just gigantic long skeletons left to the bleach in the desert and make you wonder what they were and if there are versions which still survive. It was like finding a giant washed up corpse on a beach; you don't know what it is, it's rare, and if you let your mind wander you start to worry if there are more out there alive and ready to eat you. Can you over more SW monsters through the years? This was so much fun to learn and watch!

    (Admittedly the Rage Rancor was later changed from a red rancor to basically a bull rancor and the Hunter rancor was changed to a Jungle rancor. The Shadow rancor just ended up with red stripes added to it rather than being changed to an existing rancor)

    In Star wars jedi academy, you can fight to kill a cyber rancor in one level. And if you're strong enough in another level where you're trying to rescue some allies that are locked up, you can try fighting to regular rancors. It's makes the rescue easier if you kill them.

    Rancors on different planets, well to be honest, if Rancors are as adaptable as Metroids in the Metroid franchise, it is understandable to see them around, especially with a lot of potential to them due to size and strength.
    As for other animals, teh equivelent of cattle would certainly be seen more often one would think.
