The '''Zafara''' is a [[Wikipedia:Kangaroo|kangaroo]]-like [[Neopet]] released on May 25, 2000 as the winner of a player-submitted Neopet competition, which originally resembled [[Wikipedia:Ferret|ferret]]s, but were later redesigned into the current appearance on February 27, 2001.


Zafaras primarily have three spikes on their back, but this changes in accordance with different colours and characters. According to the information on an old zafara petpage, these spikes were protective fins. Zafaras have an incredible hearing range, but they do not have a good sense of smell. Thanks to a set of powerful hind legs, the Zafara has a jumping ability unlike any other Neopet. Zafaras have an innate ability to create fire as made apparent with their level 2 [[Battledome]] ability ''Zafara Flame''. Because of this, it's rumored they could be guards of [[Fire Faerie]]s.

The Zafara is said to bring good luck to those who treat them well. According to a Neopet profiles [http://www.neopets.com/screensavers.phtml?place=48 screensaver], Zafaras are some of the most sensitive and artistic inhabitants of Neopia. Most Zafaras spend a lot of time playing alone when young, but often grow up to be famous musicians, painters and poets.
The '''Zafara''' is a [[Wikipedia:Kangaroo|kangaroo]]-like [[Neopet]] released on May 25, 2000 as the winner of a player-submitted Neopet competition. Zafaras originally resembled a cross between a [[Wikipedia:Ferret|ferret]] and a [[Wikipedia:Chinese dragon|Chinese dragon]], but were later redesigned on 27 February 2001 to look like a cross between a kangaroo and a rabbit.

Zafaras usually have three spikes on their back. According to the old default Zafara [[petpage]], these spikes were protective fins and used for defence. Zafaras have an incredible hearing range, but they do not have a good sense of smell. Due to their powerful [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=2&id=113 hind legs], the Zafara has a jumping ability unlike other Neopets. Zafaras have an innate ability to create fire (possibly a reference to their original dragonlike appearance) as made apparent with their level 2 [[Battledome]] ability ''Zafara Flame''.
 
In the [[Neopets TCG]], they are associated with the element of Light.
