I love animals! My favorite is the Armadillo from the order Cingulata with their cool leathery shell.
Armadillos look so prehistoric. They practically look like a modern day dinosaur.
Well it's funny you mention that because they are actually the only surviving families in the order of this type of animals. They are are distantly related to anteaters and sloths though.
That is so cool. Where do Armadillos predominately live?
They can be found in many areas like Spain and Portugal. The Aztecs used to call the "āyōtōchtli", which translated to mean "turtle rabbit"!
That is a much cuter name for Armadillos. I prefer that actually.
Yeah I agree. They are native to the Americas, but they can live in many different environments.
