Aviva Corcovado

*"Animals can take you anywhere in science!"*

**Aviva Corcovado** is a member and the third-in-command of the Wild Kratts crew; she is a bio-mechanical engineer and the creator of all the Wild Kratts' inventions, most notably the Tortuga and the Creature Power Suits.

## Personality

Aviva is a strong leader and an active member of the crew. However, she can take competitions a little too seriously, and can oftentimes be quite stubborn. While she has been shown to be somewhat arrogant in her abilities (no doubt due to her intelligence), she does care about the well being of her crew and the animals they encounter, and she does not value her inventions over her crew mates. Although often hard at work, she can sometimes be lazy and feel unmotivated.

Aviva can be extremely fixated on her personal views of an animal the crew encounters, such as strictly believing crocodiles to be vicious monsters and hippos to be anything but. These views have changed due to the Kratt Brothers' interactions with them. However, this only occurs when she sees it from the Kratts Brothers' point of view, as she didn't believe them when they tried to tell her mouse lemurs could be very vicious.

## Inventions

* Almost all of the Wild Kratts' machinery and gadgets were invented by Aviva. Although the Tortuga and the Creature Power Suits are the most notable of her works, there are a number of others featured in use among the crew. These include:
* The Creature Pods - All members of the Wild Kratts crew have a Creature Pod, functioning as a means of communication between them. The Creature Pods are also their signature color. Aviva's Creature Pod is violet/purple.
