The Tuskaninny ("TUSK-a-NIN-ee") is a seal-like Neopet that has an easy-going attitude, but is willing to take to any new subject, such as fighting in the Battledome. However, they tend to move slower on land than in water.[1]
Tuskaninnies are 51cm, making them one of the medium-sized Neopets.[2]
Tuskaninnies are not limited edition, meaning they can be created year-round.
Site description: "Aquatic by nature, Tuskaninnies can also move around on land with ease. Adorned with a magnificent tuft of fur on top of its head, a Tuskaninny actually doesn’t have tusks, despite its name. Tuskaninnies are eager learners, always ready to pick up new skills. With the proper training, Tuskaninnies serve as fierce Battledome contenders!"[3]

Previous Versions[]
The oldest iterations of the Tuskaninny were rather stocky with feeble-looking flippers. Some later revamps streamlined its form to make more sense as a swimming Neopet, as well as lengthening its flippers to pose much like a real seal would.[4]

Trivia[]
- Despite the name, the only Tuskaninnies that bare tusks of any sort are coloured Mutant and Tyrannian.
- The default Tuskaninny petpage is very strange: it refers to killing frogs (???) as part of classes at a Neoschool (that was scrapped).[5]
- The 8-Bit Tuskaninny was inspired by Neopets user ziporen's artwork.
