The Old Texan
Armadillo
The nine-banded Armadillo, the state animal of Texas, is a distant cousin of the sloth and the anteater. It is the only mammal which has a protective armored shell on its body. This article provides more interesting facts about this animal. On June 16th 1995, the nine-banded armadillo was officially declared as the state animal of Texas.
This is the first live one I have seen in years.
Have a great weekend and I will catch up next week.
