comment
Green Aesop: Not to an Anvilicious extent, but it's noted that the Imperial government shows no respect for the native fauna and even forces the locals to serve as guides for poachers, even though it's officially illegal to do so. Luke himself notes that it's a small cruelty compared to the other things The Empire has done, but also notes that such small cruelties are a fact of life when living under the Imperial government.

Evil Poacher: Sarco's attempts to poach local wildlife doesn't sit well with Luke or the droids. This is one of the first hints that he's even less savory than he first appears. And he already comes off as pretty unsavory.
