If you look at the concept art picture, you will notice it is in similar style to the Native and Industrial art images from Munch's Oddysee. Remember that a lot of the characters in those pictures never ended up in the final game due to all of the changes. This image was probably created in the early stages of SW, and like many of these things, certain things are changed/removed/added to a game throughout it's development. Perhaps the original intention was to have Slogs instead of Slegs, but it was decided that having a more unique and new creature would be much more appropriate.
