| rdfs:comment | - Drakoulias are large bear-like mammalianoid predators native to the ice planet of Delta Vega, in the Vulcan System. They have four paws, with the front pair being much more well developed, even giving them some resemblance to Earth's Gorillas. Each paw has four digits which end on deadly claws. The Drakoulias head is similar to that of a bat, but with a slightly longer snout and enormous canine teeth.
- In 2258, when James T. Kirk was marooned on Delta Vega he encountered a Drakoulias while trekking through the icy wastelands. The Drakoulias gave chase and Kirk thought he would most likely be killed by it until a hengrauggi attacked the pursuing animal. (TOS movie & novelization: Star Trek)
- In 2258 of the alternate reality, a drakoulias attacked James T. Kirk, who was marooned on Delta Vega. Before the drakoulias could reach him, however, a hengrauggi burst out from the ground, grabbed the drakoulias, and threw it into a mountain. (Star Trek)

| abstract | - In 2258 of the alternate reality, a drakoulias attacked James T. Kirk, who was marooned on Delta Vega. Before the drakoulias could reach him, however, a hengrauggi burst out from the ground, grabbed the drakoulias, and threw it into a mountain. (Star Trek) The drakoulias was designed by Neville Page. It is named after Star Trek music supervisor George Drakoulias. Its name was not referenced on screen, but comes from official production sources and is used on licensed products for the film. [1] The film's production team also called the animal a "polarilla", as it was designed as a cross between a polar bear and a gorilla. [2] It was called a "polarilla" in the script of the movie, which also described it as "horrifying" and, more specifically, "an eleven foot-tall cross between a polar bear and a gorilla." [3] The virtual collectible card battle game Star Trek: Rivals has an image of the Delta Vega Drakoulias on card #43. The Nibiru riding animal from Star Trek Into Darkness was a modified version of the Drakoulias model. In the novelization of the film, Kirk mutters to himself that this creature resembles the "bastard offspring" of a polar bear and a gorilla.

The Drakoulias gave chase and Kirk thought he would most likely be killed by it until a hengrauggi attacked the pursuing animal. (TOS movie & novelization: Star Trek) In 2265 polarillas and snow slugs had overrun the Starfleet outpost on Delta Vega. Special agent Erin Esurance was sent by Starfleet Command to investigate when contact was lost with the outpost. Upon beaming down to the planet Esurance had to battle her way past numerous polarillas to make it into the base, and then past more of them within the base. On her way through a network of ice caves leading into the base she encountered one particularly large polarilla, which used its bulk to create concussive force waves to force Esurance back. As the polarilla blocked her route Esurance was forced to use her phaser to disable it. (TOS video game: Delta Vega: Meltdown on the Ice Planet)
