Vai-sehlat is a particularly large subspecies of sehlat, with dense, tawny fur over their shoulders, longer, slender limbs and the profile of an animal adapted to long-distance running. Their heads were more elongated than the typical sehlat, with a dark, aquiline muzzle. All of them sported long, powerful saber-like fangs, much longer than the domestic subspecies. [1]
More feral and harsh in appearance than the domesticated sehlat, they were traditionally used as desert and war mounts by the ancient Vulcans. [2]
Even in modern times, especially in the areas around the Womb of Fire, they are still bred and ridden, though more for tradition than for any other reason.
