Note from EthanKoenigsberg: I won't add this to an article

The Luepuse-Candalien or simply called the wolf (lupesche in some human languages in AHOW or what humans do say about their physical form werewolf), are descended from the grey wolf (or gray wolf), they separated themselves from them as a subspecies in 300000 BCE. They weigh similar to their descandant and is more heavier but is slightly lesser than humans (uses the one in North America in average) or at least the same. It is estimated to have their weight around 57-80kg.

Their life expectancy would be similar to a human, with the lifespan being around 100.8 years in early 21st century. This can be obtained by inputing a number and multiplying by 1.5. A typical wolf lifespan would've been 18 years (most likely natural death or somewhere), this species may have survived longer due to it's ability to allow them to survive in other methods, and a gene that makes them similar to a human. This may indicate it is some sort of a hybrid.

It affected the human civilisation when taking over the Northern Hemisphere and confines them in the Amazon and Southern Africa, the distribution is more similar to humans but it's more dense at northern hemisphere and cold biomes because of their natural enviroment.

History
(WIP)

Etymology
In some human languages in AHOW, the word 'lupesche' deprives from a Latin word 'lupus' as a corrupted word. The full name of that species has no meaning, except the word wolf, where it has an origin of word that can be found in a dictionary.

Origin
The original wolf's intelligence isn't high enough to able to do any tasks, this might either result some genetic changes with their ancestors so that they can outrun humans. The humans evantually were pushed back from the northern hemisphere, and the temperatures reduced in both hemispheres, this continued until 1000 BCE (with an increase by 7-15°C every 20000 years), with slight decrease of the temperatures, gradually the decrease turned into an increase due to increased emissions.

Distribution and Population
The wolves had colonised most of the Northern Hemisphere with migrations around 12,000 years ago being moving into more arid and hot areas such as Australia, the Sahara Desert and humid areas, the Andes and most of South America but the Amazon. With technology improving every year, the species itself can virtually colonise in almost all of the world and adapt easily throughout the last 12,000 years which meant that they are no longer confined in European, Siberian and North American temperatures.

Around c. 1945 CE, the Luepusean civilisation had stepped on the moon, but never colonised it completely, until c. 2020 CE, a colonisation project in Earth made it possible to let them go further into the Solar System, effectively reaching from Venus to Mars by c. 2150.

The population itself has a high fertility and is currently stabilising to just around 2.5-3 only.

Culture and Behaviour
The wolves are basically warlike creatures, with some sort of a strcture that includes some sort of a different social structure that differs from any canine packs but has some traits as well as having some faith much similar to OTL religions. It is also technologically advanced in AHOW than humans, however the humans have quickly gained technology over the 21st century until industrialisation.

Society and government
The structure of the Luepusean society is based off their ancestors and humans being merged together over time. Most of them used to be in packs until they formed various tribes and existing packs were converted into families and dynasties although they have similar structure. Those packs were the first of a social structure and usually are hunters and nomads.

The government system is the same as humans with the Luepuseans have various governments with the dominant in the developed region of the Luepusean distribution being democracy or socialist. The less developed ones are more authoritarian or military. Monarchy is slightly more popular in Europe and some parts of North Africa and Middle East than a republic or any other type.
