|[[Gedd]]
|''[[Animorphs]]''
|Gedds are described as being like {{convert|3|ft|m|adj=mid|-tall}} yellow-eyed monkeys.

Compared to humans, they are slow, weak, and nearly blind, but they are capable of accepting a Yeerk, they are numerous enough to be infested (relatively) easily, and offer a young Yeerk the magic of vision.
