Megahorns are riding beasts derived from bighorn sheep stock. They are hardy and feed off the land, so they are valued by colonists and low-tech militaries alike. As mounts, they make tremendous shock cavalry; the impact of the charge and trampling against medium sized opponents is enough to break even veteran infantry. If they return to the wild, however, they can become a serious problem to low tech settlements. They will forage in crops and occasionally charge lone humans for no good reason. Hunting these maverick megahorns is a dangerous task.
Note: this profile would also work for a bantha (maybe add a bit to the size) or for any other massive horned grazer that people ride. It might be reptilian or even insectoid. I picked bighorn sheep stock because a useful domesticated animal derived from Terran stock could be found anywhere in charted space.
