 ===== Overview =====
 The Moka (Hexapodus agriventris) is a medium-sized, hexapodal browser domesticated across the [[asari|Asari Region]] of the [[equator_sections_east_and_west|Eastern Equatorial Section]] in the [[habitual_belt|Habitual Belt]] on [[the_planet_voi_700_d|VOI 700 D]].
-Bred by Exohumans in the [[beta_age|Beta Age]] for shed fiber (“pen-felt”), light pack work, a mild buccal “cheek-curd,” and **eggs**, Mokas became staple pen animals. After the [[peace_treaty|Peace Treaty]] of the [[the_gamma_age|Gamma Age]] and the vegetarian policy, meat/curd/egg consumption ceased; herds persist for fiber, manure, traction in gardens, and breeding stock.
