Swiper is very fast, agile, and somewhat of a master of disguise. In the episode " Dora Saves the Mermaids", he revealed that he "likes swiping." He has a New York accent and lives in a burrow on top of Blueberry Hill. It's also shown that he rarely knows the full importance of what he's taken for example, he had no idea the aforementioned gift was for Dora's puppy. Compounding the confusion is the fact that, given the right reason, for example, that the item in question is a present for Dora's puppy, he'll return items he has taken, no matter how much effort he went through to get them. Until recently, it was unclear if he swipes merely for the joy of swiping, or from a desire to annoy and/or frustrate Dora. Swiper's motive for theft is patently childish he never seems actually to want the object he takes, since he almost immediately throws it away to hide the item from Dora (prompting her to ask the audience to help her find it). His white eyes and black pupils are concealed behind a blue do-rag/mask, matching his gloves. Swiper's pelt is primarily an orange burgundy creme, with highlights on his eyebrows, the top of his snout, undercarriage, and the end of his tail. He then gloats, "You're too late! You'll never find it/them/your/the/that/those now!") Usually, she prevails, and Swiper slinks away, snapping his fingers and saying, "Oh, man!" in some occasions, Swiper, however, gets to the item before Dora has a chance to repeat the phrase. To prevent Swiper from succeeding, Dora must repeat the phrase, " Swiper, no swiping!" 3 times. Clever as he is, Swiper never manages to take Dora completely by surprise a whisking sound is (almost) always audible just prior to his appearances, due to leafs or other objects that may collide with him. As his name implies, Swiper swipes or attempts to swipe key items that help Dora on her adventures. He is a 10 (9 for the first 50 episodes) year old sneaky orange fox who is easily recognized by his blue mask and gloves and his love for swiping anything that he happens to come upon. Swiper is the overall main antagonist (and sometimes the anti-hero) in the television series and the secondary antagonist of Dora and the Lost City of Gold and appears in almost every episode. Swiper’s upcoming catchphrase in the 2023 reboot Swiper when he successfully swiped something You're too late! (You'll never find/get it/them/the/your/that/those now!/I got it! I got it I got it!)
