Sangloupmon is a Demon Beast Digimon and a carrier of the X Antibody whose name is derived from "Sang-loup" (Fra: Blood-wolf (Canis lupus)), and whose design is derived from the mythological Loup-garou. It is a noble, bloodsucking wolf Digimon. It is a considerably old species of Digimon, and is said to have survived since the Genesis of the Digital World. Digimon who have had their blood sucked by Sangloupmon have all the information drawn out of their DigiCores, cease vital functions, and die. Sangloupmon is able to instantly move to different places as it rushes about the Net by breaking down its data into packets at its own volition. For this reason it is said to be very difficult to capture Sangloupmon.
