Kollopi are a species of arboreal rodents found within the province of Valenwood, on the continent of Tamriel, on the planet Nirn. They live in the branches of Graht-oak trees, where they feed exclusively upon only the tenderest branches.
During Valenwood's annual harvest, entire colonies of Imga will seek out and gather these little mice in order to make a simple peasant dish out of them, also known as Kollopi. To catch the mice, the Imga will climb beneath them and jump up to pick them from their perches.
The Kollopi dish consists of little balls of flesh, thick with spices and juice. Kollopi is served in taverns in the graht-oak city of Falinesti, and presumably other locations as well.
