Star Trek – How Did They Get That One Tribble To Walk?
Dear Sara,
I just rewatched the STAR TREK episode “The Trouble With Tribbles.” There are all sorts of ways they’d do it now, but back in 1967, how did they get that one tribble to “walk”?
Best Regards,
Leslie J.
Dear Leslie,
The “walking” tribble was made by cutting off the head of a toy stuffed animal (no real animals were harmed or indeed involved), then putting the tribble exterior over the body, then using the toy’s internal apparatus to make it move.
