Zorba the Hutt's Revenge (1992), a young-adult novel by Paul and Hollace Davids, identifies Jabba's father as another powerful crime lord named Zorba and reveals that Jabba was born 596 years before the events of A New Hope, making him around 600 years old at the time of his death in Return of the Jedi.
Hutts could live over a thousand years, and were considered one of the longest-lived species in the galaxy.
Hutts could live for centuries—Jabba was 604 when he was killed—and could grow to enormous sizes. In fact, Hutts' lifespans could span over 1,000 years.
The word Hutt has become synonymous with gargantuan (Jabba weighs almost 3,000 pounds!), but did you know that they're not always that massive? Baby Hutts, or “Huttlets,” start out around 1 foot 5 inches (. 43m) in height as seen through Jabba's adorably disgusting infant son Rotta.
Well, back in the days of the original A New Hope, Jabba the Hutt was actually going to make an appearance. And no, he was not a giant slig creature. Instead he was a human with a fuzzy waist coat. The scene was shot but edited out in order to keep the character a mystery, and for pacing issues as well.
The Klatooine paddy frog was one of Jabba the Hutt's favorite snacks. In his palace, Jabba kept a special aquarium to the left of his dais in which the creatures were kept along with other amphibious delicacies. As with gorgs, the Hutt preferred to keep these creatures alive for consumption.
Hutts are extremely long-lived and reproduce asexually, nursing their young in pouches like those of marsupials. Hutts have separate sexes in canon, no longer being hermaphroditic as they were in the Legends continuity. According to Legends, all members of the species are hermaphroditic.
Beldorion was a Force-sensitive Hutt who served as a Jedi Knight serving the Jedi Order and the Galactic Republic roughly four hundred years before the founding of the Galactic Empire. After being sent to Nam Chorios, he fell to the dark side and established himself as the ruler of the planet, forsaking the Jedi.
He was kidnapped by Asajj Ventress and taken to the planet Teth. A Jedi rescue team consisting of Anakin Skywalker and his Padawan Ahsoka Tano traveled to Teth to rescue him. He then became sick and nearly died on his way to Tatooine but survived thanks to Ahsoka Tano.
The Hutt Clan was one of the most powerful crime families in the galaxy, making riches through smuggling and myriad illegal businesses across worlds.
The species had a very long life expectancy, spanning at least several centuries; Yoda lived nearly a thousand years before dying of old age, and they aged very slowly, remaining in infancy for at least fifty standard years.
Fennec then tells Boba “You need permission if you want to kill them.” This is in reference to the Hutt Clan's well-established power in the criminal underworld. They are so connected in the criminal underworld across the galaxy that attacking one would be like attacking all of them.
Heir apparent to the Hutt empire, Jabba's infant son was barely old enough to slither before his conniving and power-hungry great-uncle, Ziro, already had him marked for death at the time of the Clone Wars.
In the films, Jabba is a powerful crime lord on the planet Tatooine, who is of the Hutt species. He is obese and often exemplifies his characterizations of lust and greed by having slave alien girls in his throne room.
Boba Fett was definitely dead. We all saw it: a partially blinded Han Solo unknowingly whacked him with a stick in Return of the Jedi, his jetpack malfunctioned, and then he fell into the mouth of a massive sand monster. You could tell by the way it swallowed and belched.
Jabba's actual full name was Jabba Desilijic Tiure. His official title was “His Excellency Jabba Desilijic Tiure of Nal Hutta, Eminence of Tatooine.” However, Jabba was commonly just referred to as “Jabba” or “Jabba the Hutt” in the Star Wars movies and series.
George Lucas opted to have many details of the character's life history remain unknown. Yoda's race and home world have not been named in any official media, canonical or otherwise, and he is merely said to be of a "species unknown" by the Star Wars Databank.
Although it is not explicitly shown in RETURN OF THE JEDI, yes, he does. All Legends and still-recognized-as-canon fiction portray Leia's capture by Jabba as concluding, at least in that scene, with him having her pushed up against him, and him licking her face.
Jabba also had a son with his loyal henchwoman Kumac. He also had a lust for female humanoids, often enslaving them for his pleasure, such as Oola and Leia as well as many others. However, this trait turned out to be his downfall, when his scantily clad slave Leia killed him.
The hookah pipe was very popular with the Hutts, particularly those who were the head of major and powerful criminal empires. Jabba the Hutt, the infamous kingpin of the Outer Rim, almost always had a hookah with a removable lid by his side. On the top portion was a gas substance which he would inhale and exhale.
Gardulla was a beverage that Jabba Desilijic Tiure would occasionally share with the bounty hunter Boba Fett in his palace on Tatooine.
Jabba the Hutt was one of the galaxy's most powerful gangsters, with far-reaching influence in both politics and the criminal underworld.
