Tasha is an anthropomorphic yellow hippo and a major protagonist of The Backyardigans.

She was voiced by Naelee Rae in the first two seasons and by Gianna Bruzzese in the final two seasons. Her singing voice was initially provided by Kristin Klabunde, with Gabriella Malek taking over during the 3rd season and continuing to voice the character for the remainder of the series.

Description and Personality[]

Tasha is assertive and likes to be in charge most of the time. She is rational, skeptical, and highly motivated to get her own way. Tasha is normally very opinionated. She is difficult to frighten, a fact she takes pride in. Tasha tends to play a somewhat antagonistic role throughout the 1st 2 seasons, often acting bossy towards the other characters. In later episodes, her personality becomes bolder and less overbearing.              

Residence[]

Tasha lives in a yellow-colored house to the left of Pablo's home. It is visited the least out of the 5 main characters' residences. Whenever the Backyardigans are shown heading to Tasha's house for a snack, they walk behind Pablo's house to get there.
