[[Children]] from the [[Ba'ku planet]], such as [[Artim]], kept them as [[pet]]s. ({{film|9}}) == Appendices == ===Background information=== It is unknown if this "palm pet" was native to the planet, or if the Ba'ku brought them from their [[homeworld]]. The script of ''Insurrection'' described the animal as "a colorful cross between a caterpillar and a jellyfish". The name came from design notes, but was never mentioned in the film. Like the [[Ba'ku hummingbird]], the rhyl was a deceptively lifelike creature, yet a [[CGI|digital construct]] nonetheless, built at [[Blue Sky/VIFX]], whose staffers incidentally, were the ones who utilized the moniker "palm pet" among themselves, managing to get the descriptive denominator elevated into the final script draft in {{st-minutiae|resources/scripts/ins.txt|scene 87}}. For further information on the CGI model of the ''rhyl'', see: ''[[Rhyl model]]''. A licensed tie-in beanie toy of the Ba'ku ''rhyl'' was made by The Idea Company and sold, for a short time, at ''[[Star Trek: The Experience]]'' at the Las Vegas Hilton. ===Apocrypha=== According to the RPG sourcebook ''[[Creatures]]'', the rhyl has the ability to use the metaphasic particles bombarding its planet to enter into "slow time". This causes the rhyl to suddenly disappear from view, enabling it to escape from predators.
