KOTOR had several planets with extremely hostile and violent wildlife that displayed incredible resilience to being shot. I'm also pretty sure they showed up more or less randomly for the sole purpose of mayhem, since I'm pretty thorough about clearing things out behind me, and when I came back out of a dead-end passage, there were more of them. But I feel a little bit of random mayhem every now and then is a healthy thing.
If you'll reread my posting a wee bit more carefully, you might notice I said "people" when referring to random mayhem. Not critters. KotOR doesn't have such things as random dark jedi (random ninjas) or wandering random stormtroopers.

The critters outdoors on Dantooine do respawn, as do the mutant ghoul thingies on the first planet.
