The '''JubJub''' is a small [[Neopet]] reminiscent of a [[wikipedia:hedgehog|hedgehog]]. They were one of the original species available from [[Neopets]]' launch. The JubJubs' body is a ball of fur with no arms or hands, just a large pair of feet. Their feet have [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=3&id=9 opposable toes], which means they can still manipulate tools. | |||
The JubJub's design - a ball with feet - is similar to the [[Kiko]]'s design - a ball with arms. There are two [[colour]]s that only JubJubs and Kikos can be painted - [[Clay]] and [[Garlic]]. The JubJub is also the only Neopet that can be painted [[Coconut]], where they resemble some members of the [[Coco people]]. | |||
They are shy, unaggressive creatures who prefer to keep to themselves, but scare very easily. They can defend themselves with a deafening screech, and can curl up into a ball and flee at high speed. There are sixteen pieces of [[battledome equipment|equipment]] that can only be used by a JubJub. | |||
In the [[Neopets Trading Card Game]], JubJubs are associated with the element of Air. | |||
==Etymology== | |||
The JubJub was originally called the ''JibJib'', and was [http://www.reddit.com/r/neopets/comments/638eii/our_jubjub_is_now_immortal/dfs5dii/?context=3 based on] the [http://www.fightingfantasygamebooks.com/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=670&Itemid=37 Jib Jib, a creature] from the [[wikipedia:Fighting Fantasy|Fighting Fantasy]] gamebook series. | |||
It was renamed ''JubJub'' on 23 August, 2000. It shares its name with the [[wikipedia:Jubjub bird|Jubjub bird]] of [[Wikipedia: Lewis Carroll|Lewis Carroll]]'s poems [[Wikipedia:Jabberwocky|''Jabberwocky'']] and ''[[wikipedia:The Hunting of the Snark|The Hunting of the Snark]]''. | |||

*On October 3, 2007, a [[Neovision]] Mini-Show was released, showing a yellow JubJub using many different [[Battledome Equipment]] items (notably the [[Battle Duck]], [[Little Timmys Slingshot|Little Timmy's Slingshot]], ''Bony Grarrl Club'', Sword Of Skardsen, [[Jhudora's Cloud|Wand of the Dark Faerie]], and Ghostkerbomb) using mechanical arms, a joke about how JubJubs do not have hands. | |||
