Rather, they are designed to provide fresh food for Covenant soldiers.[1][4] They contain large hunting preserves holding many types of animals, to be hunted, killed, and fed to the personnel within the fleet.[1][3] They also contain plants, though it is unknown whether they are used for food or not.[5]
