If you\u2019ve been watching The Mandalorian on Disney+, or if you just have access to the internet, you\u2019ve no doubt seen the adorable little green creature who has exploded onto the Star Wars scene known affectionately by fans and non-fans alike as Baby Yoda.\n Baby Yoda has been a key part of The Mandalorian (of which there\u2019s been three episodes released at the time of writing), and seems set to stay a key part of the series as it continues.\n Whilst speculation in the internet-sphere is rife, with some stating he\u2019s Emperor Palpatine, and others stating he\u2019s Yoda and Yaddle\u2019s lovechild, we actually know very little about Baby Yoda.\n But what exactly do we know about Baby Yoda? Well, for starters\u2026\n Despite being nicknamed Baby Yoda, those of you who haven\u2019t seen The Mandalorian (or if you\u2019re just not a Star Wars fan) might not know that he is actually not the baby version of Yoda, the green Grandmaster of the Jedi Order from Episodes I \u2013 VI.\n The Mandalorian is set in the time vacuum between Episode VI: Return of the Jedi and Episode VII: The Force Awakens, and as any Star Wars fan will be able to tell you, Yoda himself died during Return.\n Let\u2019s not forget that iconic deathbed quote of his: \u201cWhen 900 years old you reach, look as good you will not.\u201d\n Not much is known about Yoda\u2019s species \u2013 heck, we don\u2019t even know what his species is called or where they\u2019re from, hence this little green fella being nicknamed \u201cBaby Yoda\u201d.\n But one thing we know for sure is that he is definitely the same species as the Grandmaster.\n As you\u2019ll recall from Return, Yoda told us he was 900 years old before he died.\n There are a few (and I mean a few) species that have incredibly long lifespans in the Star Wars universe, including Maz Kanata from the sequel-era trilogy who is over 1,000 years old in The Force Awakens.\n Baby Yoda\u2019s age is given to us, and the titular Mandalorian, in the first episode when the Client, played sublimely by Werner Herzog, tells Pedro Pascal\u2019s Mandalorian his intended bounty is 50 years old.\n Now, this is a very interesting little tidbit of info. But why?\nHe is NOT Yoda.\n
