As their huge eyes might suggest, Acaras are known for being highly inquisitive and curious creatures. They take a great joy in coming upon secrets and hidden things, and quite a few have distinguished themselves as very talented treasure-seekers. Some condemn Acaras for being nosey, and it is true that they tend to ask a few too many questions -- but there is no ill will behind those questions, just a genuine desire to learn.
The '''Acara''' is a species of [[Neopet]] that loves to live by the sea. They are [[wikipedia:Amphibians|amphibious]] - they can [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=1&id=170 breath in water or on land] - although having fur like [[wikipedia:mammals|mammals]]. They have two horn-like protrusions on their heads that allow them to hear well underwater, and their thick coat of fur keeps them warm.  


Since they are equally at home on land or underwater, Acaras prefer to live along the coast.
Its name may come from two species of [[wikipedia:cichlid|cichlid]]s - a family of freshwater fish - the [[wikipedia:blue acara|blue acara]] and the [[wikipedia:zebra acara|zebra acara]].


As of {{CURRENTMONTHNAMEGEN}} {{CURRENTDAY}} {{CURRENTYEAR}}, Acaras rank 9th out of 53 Neopets, with about 5 million in existence.
Acaras are typically fantastic swimmers who enjoy diving for treasure. In the [[Neopets Trading Card Game]], they are associated with the element of water.

{{main|List of Neopet redesigns#Acara}}
The Acara was originally introduced as the Tigren on 28 April 2000. It was renamed to the Acara on 19 July, at the same time the Polypup became the [[Gelert]], and it was at this point that its design received the 'horns' brushed back over its head. The Tigren's formerly large, bushy tail also shrank considerably and may have even vanished altogether.
