Jammbonians



"Jammbonian" is the eponym for things relating to the planet Jammbo, as confirmed via JellyJamm.com and the episode "Flower Fear." As per such, the species of humanoid aliens hailing from this planet, and the species of the main characters, is also referred to as “Jammbonian.”

Anatomy
Jammbonians have a humanoid anatomical structure. They are bipedal vertebrates (as per the skeletons shown when lighting strikes them in episodes such as "Haunted Castle") which follow a human body shape. Their heads and necks vary greatly in terms of shape, length and size, ranging from circular to square, rectangular, or teardrop-shaped. Sometimes long-necked Jammbonians’ heads and necks do not have a distinct chin separating the head from the neck. Their bodies are also rather varied in terms of shape and size, with the children’s bodies more closely resembling human bodies and the King and Queen having more deformed sorts of bodies with varied limb and torso proportions.

As per a comment by Bello in “Super Jelly League,” Jammbonians have jelly flowing through their veins as opposed to blood. Jammbonians can wobble around their arms in a fluid fashion and stretch their limbs (as shown when the characters dance and in episodes like “Agent Mina” where Bello stretches out Mina’s arm to kiss her hand), which might imply that they have softer and more jelly-like skeletons.

Jammbonian hair is typically the same color as the Jammbonian’s skin, and appears solid. They have hands and feet which are lighter than the rest of their bodies, although the Queen does not display this trait. They have five-fingered hands like humans but only two-toed feet.

Jammbonians have eyes, mouths and teeth like humans. They do not appear to have ears or noses yet they are still able to hear and smell. There have been numerous examples of characters putting hands up to where their ears would be to amplify sound or covering the areas where their ears would be if a sound is too loud, implying they have some sort of auditory organ on the sides of their heads. Characters make comments about the way things smell, such as Mina’s sneakers/trainers in “Super Jelly League” and the trash in “Operation: Save Jammbo,” and as per Bello plugging the area on his face where his nose would be if he was a human in “Operation: Save Jammbo,” they appear to smell things through the fronts of their faces as if they had noses.

Jammbonians do not seem to have any sort of reproductive organs. This may explain why Bello does not wear pants, and why Guardian Dodos are in charge of taking care of Jammbonian youth.

Jammbonians seemingly have advanced, human-like brains, judging by the way they act. They function identically to humans cognitively and have varying levels of intelligence from alien to alien.

Diet
Main article: Food

Jammbonians consume a mainly plant-based diet heavy on fruits and vegetables, although meat such as galactic turkeys (as shown by Goomo and the King in "Promises, Promises") appears to be present in their diets as well. They are also capable of ingesting breads, cakes, pies and cookies, which frequently make appearances in the series. All in all, their diet closely resembles the human diet.
