The Yellow Kougra as of January 2007

Originating from Mystery Island, the Kougra is a Neopet whose 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.

The Kougra was introduced upon the discovery of the 'Mystery Isle' as one of several potential pets, on 3rd August 2000. As Tiger Cub it won the user vote and was released as a pet on the 9th August 2000.
