The armadillo is one of my favorite animals, the name itself actually means "little armoured one" in Spanish!
I have never seen an armadillo. Don't know much about them. What do they eat?
I do not actually, do you? I only know that there are over 21 extant species of armadillo, so there are different kinds.
Oh wow. Where do you normally find armadillos at ?
Armadillos are a native South American mammal, it falls under one of South America's three distinct groups of terrestrial mammals.
I've never been to South America, so that is most likely why I've not seen one. I wonder if they have any in the zoos here in the United States.
Oh I'm sure they do somewhere. There are many distinct animals that come from South America. South America actually shared a land connection to Antarctica during the early Cenozoic days.
That is awesome! I hope to see one someday.
I hope you do, there is even a neat armadillo called the pink fairy armadillo!
What?! I have to see that one! Sounds so interesting!
