- "Cid warned us about poachers in the area"
- ―Hunter of Clone Force 99
Two poachers illegally capturing a nexu.
Poaching was a criminal hunting activity practiced by poachers, involving the illegal killing, capturing, or otherwise harvesting of wild animals. While on assignment for the Galactic Society of Creature Enthusiasts, the safari droid SF-R3 and cam droid CAM witnessed two poachers attempting to illegally capture a nexu.[2] A rogue Ithorian organization offered unlicensed big game hunting expeditions into the Mother Jungle that the Dowutin mercenary Grummgar once took part in,[3][4] which could be described as poaching.
Between 19 BBY and 18 BBY,[5] the Trandoshan cantina owner Ciddarin Scaleback warned the mercenary squad Clone Force 99 about poachers present on Ipsidon, where they were mining for ipsium.[1]

- ↑ Per the reasoning here, the seventh and eighth episodes of The Bad Batch Season 2, "The Clone Conspiracy" and "Truth and Consequences," can be placed in 18 BBY. Therefore, all Season 2 episodes proceeding "The Clone Conspiracy" occur between 19 BBY, which features the end of The Bad Batch Season 1 according to Star Wars: Timelines, and 18 BBY. The Galactic Empire, the formation of which Star Wars: Timelines dates to 19 BBY, sent Mayday's squad to Barton IV over a year prior to the events of the twelfth episode, "The Outpost." As it occurs over a year into the Imperial Era and is set shortly after the events of "Truth and Consequences," the events of "The Outpost" occur around 18 BBY. Following that logic, the ninth through eleventh episodes ("The Crossing" through "Metamorphosis") are also set around 18 BBY because they occur between the events of "Truth and Consequences" and "The Outpost." Finally, all season 2 episodes set after "The Outpost" occur shortly after its events, thereby placing those episodes around 18 BBY as well.
