An anubite, h, is a type of monster that appears in dNetHack and notdNetHack. The anubite is a carnivorous humanoid werecreature that has infravision and the ability to see invisible, and can be seen via infravision - they can take a canine form known as an anuban jackal, d, which lacks infravision. In humanoid form, an anubite will pick up weapons, food and magical items.

An anubite has a weapon attack, an offhand weapon attack and a bite attack in humanoid form, while in anuban jackal form it has a lycanthropy-inducing bite attack and the ability to summon hostile werejackals when in range of a character. Anubites possess drain resistance in both forms. Eating an anubite corpse or tin confers werejackal lycanthropy to a character.

In SpliceHack, the anubite, 9 is a defunct monster that existed in pre-rewrite versions and was part of the gnoll monster class.
