Why is it masculine?
Lobo is masculine because it derives from Latin "lupus" (masculine), which followed the second declension pattern for masculine nouns ending in -us, a gender that was preserved when Latin evolved into Spanish. The -o ending in Spanish consistently marks masculine nouns as a direct continuation of this Latin masculine grammatical gender.
