About the Armadillo

The armadillo is a small, armored mammal native to Central and South America. They are known for their distinctive shells made of bony plates that protect them from predators.

Armadillos have poor vision and rely on their sense of smell to locate food. They primarily feed on insects and other small invertebrates, but can also consume plant matter.

While armadillos are not commonly kept as pets, some people in the Americas keep them as exotic pets.

However, due to their tendency to carry and spread the bacteria that cause leprosy, it is not recommended to keep armadillos as pets.
