3701. Kougra

Kougras are one of many different species that exist in Neopia. As a general rule Kougras come from Mystery Island, although you can find Kougras all over Neopia. They have very large paws which they love to use to pounce on things. The Kougra (a homophone of cougar, an American big cat) is a tiger-like Neopet introduced August 3, 2000 upon the discovery of the 'Mystery Island' as one of several potential pets. As Tiger Cub it won the user vote and was released as a pet on August 9, 2000. Kougras were first discovered in the deep forests of Mystery Island feasting on the exotic fruits found there. This would seem to indicate that their main diet consists primarily of fruit instead of meat, unlike their real-life counterparts. Kougras have enormous paws that come in handy when they practice pouncing and playing with each other. Although Kougras enjoy to hunt it is mainly done for fun since once they have caught their target, they're never really sure what to do with it. In the Neopets Trading Card Game, they are associated with the element of Fire. Oddly enough, the Kougra seems closely related to the Cougar on Earth. Kougras are a Neopian species. The Kougra is currently the 3rd most popular pet. Over 10 million Kougras have been created, making up approximately 5.9% of the pet population. Kougras were discovered in the "deep forests of Mystery Island". Kougra Day is April 22nd (the month of Eating).
