Thresher maws are subterranean megafauna native to the planet Tuchanka in Mass Effect.
Thresher maws were somehow distributed to other planets when the krogan race was given interstellar spaceflight technology to fight in the Rachni War. They have since become dangerous pests on many worlds.
Thresher maws are creatures of legend to the krogan, who use devices called "maw hammers" to attract them for rites of passage.
