I saw some armadillos the other day. After studying them I realized that they are mammals. They also have a leathery armor shell.
I believe that they share common traits with anteaters and sloths.
Interesting. The name Armadillo comes from the Spanish word meaning "little armored one" fittingly enough.
There is a Giant armadillo.  They are in South America and can weigh almost 120 pounds in the wild.
I also learned that the Aztecs had a name for them which translated to "turtle-rabbit" I thought that was pretty accurate.
Ha!  That is a pretty good description.  The shells are used to make the  Charango instrument.  It is similar to a guitar or banjo in looks
I wonder how those sound. Armadillos can be found all over the Americas. They inhabit all types of environments..
