The Gorn are an intelligent, bipedal, reptilian species who fought with Captain Kirk on stardate 3045.6 under the assumption that the Federation was threatening the Gorn claim to the planet Cestus III. The Gorn have their own political alliance, called the Gorn Hegemony, and claim eight star systems throughout three sectors. The Gorn are usually over two meters tall with rough leathery skin and a hard multifaceted shell over their eyes. The Gorn have large claws on their hands and feet, and are unable to speak most humanoid languages, requiring translators to communicate with most other lifeforms.
