The '''Lutari''' is an otter-like Neopet, released as a [[Limited Edition]] Neopet on April 19, 2006. Lutaris are alert, friendly Neopets who enjoy playing games outside. They are excellent swimmers and spend much of their time in the water. Lutaris get very upset at the thought of being left in the [[Neopian Pound]], and will run away to parts unknown if a user even tries.
The '''Lutari''' (from the [[wikipedia:Latin|Latin]] ''[[wiktionary:lutra|lutra]]'', ''otter'', as in [[wikipedia:European Otter|''Lutra lutra'']]) is an [[wikipedia:otter|otter]]-like [[Neopet]], released as a [[limited edition]] Neopet on 19 April 2006. Lutaris are alert, friendly Neopets who enjoy playing games outside. They are excellent swimmers and spend much of their time in the water. At least some Lutaris are [http://www.neopets.com/tcg/displayCard.phtml?edid=10&id=120 dam builders] like [[wikipedia:beaver|beaver]]s.

Lutaris come from [[Lutari Island]], which was only accessible via the now defunct mobile phone service. When accessed on the main [[Neopets]] site, it is shrouded in impenetrable mist. Their images existed on the Neopets image server - under the name of the ''Mok'' - for a long time before they were available to players. The first Lutari to be seen in [[Neopia]] - before users could create them - was [[Mr. Chipper]], who started running [[Happy Valley Ice Cream]] on 21 December 2004.  


The Neopet's release was long awaited as images of the Neopet in its four basic colours as well as [[Island]] have been on the image servers for almost a year. The first time a Lutari was officially seen was at the opening of the Happy Valley Ice Cream shop on December 21, 2004, whose shopkeeper is a Lutari, under the name [[Mr. Chipper]].
Following the [[Neopets 2.0]] revamp to allow for [[Neopets Customisation|clothing Neopets]], the Lutari was redrawn from its sleek swimming pose to a standing pose more in uniform with other Neopets. In the [[Neopets Trading Card Game]], they are associated with the element of [[Water Faerie|Water]].  
 
With the release of the Lutari, the launch of [[Lutari Island]], a new [[Neopian]] world which is only accessible via mobile phones, occured on June 24, 2006. It was developed by the company ''In-fusio''. A picture of the land has appeared in the [[Neopets Magazine]], and many Lutari Island items have been found on the servers, including two [[petpet]]s.

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*As of February 2009, there are 15,091 Lutaris populating [[Neopia]], ranking them 52nd in popularity (out of 54 species, so it is the third rarest behind the Krawk and the Draik.)
*A [[trophy]] called the [[Lutari Talisman]] was added to all [[User Lookup]]s on June 28, 2006. Special beads can be placed on this trophy.  
*Was originally known as the '''Mok'''
*The Island colour was in the image database since 19 April, 2007, but it wasn't released until 26 April, 2007.
*Users have expressed concern it may cost real money (through having to use a mobile phone) to acquire a Lutari as a pet, but this has since changed with the release of the Neopet.
*The [[Aquatic Petpet|Aquatic]] [[Petpet]] [[Lutra]] closely resembles the Lutari.
*The name "Lutari" comes from the otter génera ''[[Wikipedia:Lutrinae|Lutra]]''.
*As of October 2009, over 110 thousand Lutari have been created on Neopets, placing them 53rd of 55 Neopets in popularity. They are also featured in 193 [[item]]s.
*The Lutari is different from other Limited Edition Neopets as they are deleted if you attempt to abandon them, making transfer of the Neopet to a new owner impossible. There are rumours that say the Lutari reappears in the create a petpage if pounded, but since no one is willing to pound one, it is unconfirmed. Made mention of in the editorial of issue 236 of the [[Neopian Times]].
*A [[trophy]] called the [[Lutari Talisman]] was added to all [[User Lookup]]s on June 28, 2006. So far users can only see their own collected beads, but it's possible [[The Neopets Team]] will let other users see another's collected beads soon.
*The Island colour was in the image database since April 19 2007, but wasn't released until April 26, 2007.
