Palpatine Wanted to Erase the Jedi’s Power to Connect with Beasts - But Why?

Every aspect of the Jedi was erased from the galaxy ( with Vaklin being the best example of what was happening in practically every system ) , but this comic puts a heightened focussing on Darth Vader eliminating even the approximation that Jedi could connect with animals through the Force before destroying every trace of the fact that this power was ever possible . So , this implore the question : why did Palpatine want the extragalactic nebula to draw a blank the Jedi could command beasts ?

While the understanding is n’t grant , as it could easily be chalked up to this power being just one of the many Palpatine wanted to see eradicated , there are a few reasons why the Emperor wanted the galaxy to draw a blank the Jedi could control beasts . Perhaps Palpatine want to sever the inherent connection to all matter the Jedi were known for , given his hunting expedition to make them all seem like traitors and terrorist . Or , perhaps the Emperor did n’t require fresh Force - sensible people to know this mogul could even be reach , as it could potentially be a threat to him .

Whatever the intellect , it is interesting that Palpatine wanted this Force power erase , especially given his own kinship for controlling animal .
