They do not believe in government, so their society exists in a state of total anarchy, where only the strong survive. They are large, hairy beings with a fearsome appearance, and have been described as "nasty-looking brutes." They have a muscular build, and two sets of protruding tusks, giving an intimidating presence. Their eyes appear red and yellow, contributing to their animal-like aura. Chalnoths are carnivores, relying on a meat-based diet for sustenance. However, their dietary requirements are unique, and they cannot consume typical edible substances. Instead, they subsist on the flesh of [[Minor Species#humanoid]]s or even sustain themselves with the unconventional choice of a Bonsai tree. Notably the Chalnoth had a short window for survival without food, typically lasting only three to four days. Chalnoth society contrasts many other known civilizations, and operates in a state of complete anarchy. They do have not have any governments or centralized authority. Their society believes that only the strongest individuals thrives, and the cutthroat environment fosters a culture of self-reliance and dominance, where physical prowess and survival instincts were paramount. Cooperation and collaboration are rare, and each Chalnoth fends for themselves in a harsh and unforgiving world. This species' and its planet's history are unknown, with even its own inhabitants keeping little to no records. According to Federation records, a Chalnothnamed Esoqq was abducted in [[2366]] and replaced with a replica, along with other individuals, including [[Captain]] [[Jean Luc Picard]]. Somehow, this species was warp-capable.
