Trelkez

Trelkez are fictional animals featured in the 1999-2003 science fiction television series Farscape. They appeared in the eighth episode of season one, "That Old Black Magic".

Trelkez are reptilian bird-like creatures with multiple heads and a long tail. While visiting a Commerce planet, John Crichton found one with two heads, which he described as "one part critter, two parts harmony". Aeryn Sun discouraged him from buying one however, noting that this particular animal had too few heads. As the brains of a Telkez are considered a delicacy amongst some cultures, the value of a single animal increases depending upon how many heads they have. According to Aeryn, Trelkez brains are always served raws.
