Editing Kougra

[[Image:Kougra yellow baby.gif|right|frame|The Yellow Kougra as of January 2007]]

The '''Kougra''' is a [[Wikipedia:tiger|tiger]]-like [[Neopet]] introduced upon the [http://neopets.com/newfeatures/aug2000.phtml discovery of the 'Mystery Island'] as one of several potential pets, on August 3, 2000. As ''Tiger Cub'' it won the user vote and was released as a pet on August 9, 2000.

==Overview==
Originating from [[Mystery Island]], the Kougra's energetic nature combined with its large paws and pointy teeth make it a natural in the [[Battledome]]. These cheeky buggers love to pounce on unsuspecting playmates, so if you plan to introduce this Neopet to your family and friends, make sure that its playmates do not confuse the Kougra's playfulness for aggression.

The Kougra seems to have been modelled off of the tiger, with slight modifications to make it more appealing. These modifications include giving the Kougra large eyes and big paws, both of which are associated with youth, along with toning down the teeth and muscles that make natural tigers so intimidating. The Kougra also has notches in its ears and tufts in its fur, adding to the illusion of playfulness and spontaneity.

Kougras love to play and practice pouncing on each other, and can be very fierce if aggaravated, what with their long tails, hard claws, and razor sharp teeth. A Kougra can be extremely willful, headstrong, and pretty independent. Just like a real-life tiger, a Kougra is very clever and quite good at stalking.
