The '''Acara''', originally introduced as the ''Tigren'', is a species of [[Neopet]] that loves to live by the sea.  Able to breath underwater, Acaras are just as happy on land as they are in the ocean.  Acaras are fantastic swimmers and posses a thick coat of fur that helps keep them warm in the depths of the sea.  They also have two horn-like protrusions on their heads that allow them to hear underwater.  As a general rule, Acaras are very playful and love to explore. They especially enjoy diving for hidden treasure and playing [[Gormball]] on the beach.

Originally, they were [[Limited Edition|limited edition]] but have now become common.

==Colours==
As of January 2010, the Acara can come in 49 different [[Rainbow Pool|colours]]:

==Tigren== 
[[Image:Tigren green baby.gif|right]]
The Acara was originally called the Tigren. The Tigren was designed by Perdiddle and chosen as the winner for the April Create-A-Pet Contest and was introduced on April 28, 2000. The name was changed on July 19 for reasons unknown, along with the '''Polypup''''s change to the [[Gelert]]. NeoNews of the time touted the change as "evolution", just like [[Wikipedia: Pokémon|Pokémon]] do.

The write up that came with the Tigren stated: Tigrens are excellent swimmers that are just as comfortable on land as at sea. An air of mystery surrounds where these creatures came from but it looks as if they are here to stay.
