The '''Lupe''' (from the [[wikipedia:latin|latin]] ''[[wiktionary:lupus|lupus]]'' meaning "wolf") is a [[Wikipedia:Wolf|wolf]]-like [[Neopet]], released on 13 January 2000, as a selection from a Create-a-Pet Contest. Though hunters by nature, Lupes are loyal Neopets who will often throw themselves into danger to protect their friends. Lupes enjoy adventuring to new territories and prowling around [[Neopia]].


The '''Lupe''' is a [[Wikipedia:Wolf|wolf]]-like [[Neopet]], released on January 13, 2000, as a selection from a Create-a-Pet Contest. Brave and loyal, though sometimes a little over confident, Lupes enjoy adventuring to new territories with their friends, and prowling around Neopia.
Lupes have a natural rivalry with [[Chia]]s. Lupe treats are shaped like Chias, and other [[food]]s like ''Chocolate Chias'' are Lupe delicacies. A Lupe will practice hunting on Chia [[plushies]], and if given one to play with will invariably tear it up. There is a Lupe species [[battledome equipment|weapon]] called the ''Lupe Chia Bomb'' that will do extra damage to Chias in 2-player [[Battledome]] matches, and in kind [[Hubrid Nox]] developed ''Hubrids Noxious Blade'' that does extra damage to Lupes. Users with both a Lupe and a Chia pet may notice their Chia looks unhappy.  


Lupes are common characters in Neopian [[Game]]s and [[Plot]]s, having one of the largest impacts on the world of [[Neopets]].
A [[Halloween]] Lupe is called a ''Werelupe'', a reference to the [[wikipedia:werewolf|werewolves]] of real life myth. [[Spotted]] Lupes resemble [[Wikipedia:African Wild Dog|African wild dog]], and [[Maraquan]] Lupes resemble [[wikipedia:pinniped|seals]]. In the [[Neopets Trading Card Game]], Lupes are associated with the element of Earth.

*Revealed to the world on January 13, 2000 as a selection from the [[Create-a-Pet Contest]] along side the [[Elephante]].
*''Lupe Day'' is on May 2nd.
*The name "Lupe" comes from the Latin word ''[[Wikipedia:Lupus|lupus]]'', meaning wolf.
*Lupes are commonly used for intermediate level battling because of the '''Iron Lupe Sword''' and '''Ancient Lupe Wand'''.
*The relationship of the Lupe and Chia is uncertain, but there are ''Lupe Treats'' in the shape of [[Chia]]s for Lupes to eat (along with other Chia shaped [[Food]]), and when they play with a Chia [[Plushie]], it breaks. When you have a Lupe and Chia Neopet, the Chia seems to be unhappy. [[Hubrid Nox]] also created a specially designed [[Battledome Equipment]] which does extra damage to Lupes. Also there is a special species weapon for Lupes called Lupe Chia Bomb which deals extra damage to Chias.
*In [[Neopets TCG]], Lupes are often associated with the element of [[Earth Faerie|Earth]].
*If you paint a Lupe [[Spotted]], it will resemble a [[Wikipedia:African Wild Dog|African wild dog]]
