"We found a strange and potentially dangerous substance that has resisted our most advanced scientific analytic processes on these unmanned spacecraft of indeterminate origin. I would be suspicious, but my pet loves the stuff. Seems legit." : As Pheru were popular with both human and San 'Shyuum alike, individuals from
