Critters Home Alligators Armadillo Barn Owls ... Woodpeckers Armadillo The nine-banded armadillo ( Dasypus novemcinctus ) is an odd-looking mammal covered with armored plates, and is about the size of a cat. Armadillos are not native to Florida, but are now common over most of the state. Armadillos like forested or semi-open habitats with loose textured soil that allows them to dig easily. They dig burrows for homes or to escape predators. They eat many insects, or other invertebrates, and some plants. They most often feed at night, and have very poor eyesight. Armadillos prolific rooting and burrowing can severely damage lawns and flower-beds. To reduce armadillo damage to your lawn keep watering and fertilization to a minimum. Moist soil and lush vegetation bring earth worms and insect larvae (armadillo candy!) to the surface of the soil. Armadillos can sometimes be enticed to move by watering areas adjacent to the damage site. Armadillos can also be excluded from small areas of extensive damage with fencing at least 2 feet high and with bottom buried at least 18 inches deep. It is lawful for a landowner to live-trap or humanely destroy nuisance armadillos although they are difficult to capture with live traps. Armadillos are not considered native to Florida and are, therefore, illegal to transport and release.

They are by far the most diverse group of xenarthrans, with 20 species in 8 genera. To most of us, the defining feature of armadillos is their " shell ." This structure consists of bony scutes covered with thin keratinous (horny) plates. The scutes cover most of the dorsal surface of the body. They are interrupted by bands of flexible skin at least behind the head, and in most species, at intervals across the back as well. The belly is soft and unprotected by bone except insofar as some species are able to curl into a ball. Hairs project from the areas between scutes, and in some species the ventral surface is densely hairy as well. The limbs have irregular horny plates covering at least parts of their surfaces; they also may be hairy. The top of the head is always covered by a shield of keratin-covered scutes, and the tail is covered by bony rings. Armadillos vary in size from the tiny fairy armadillo (120 gms) to the giant armadillo (60 kg). Body length ranges from about 125 mm to around 1 m. The snout is short and triangular in some species, long and tubular in others. Some species have large external ears, others do not. The eyes generally seem small. All armadillos have powerful forelimbs, with 3-5 digits (depending on the species) tipped with heavy, curved

About Us Field Projects How You Can Help Publications ... Armadillos Armadillos HSUS Although armadillos have several unique characteristics that distinguish them from other mammals, the more than 2,000 bony scales that cover the head, legs, and back are their most notable features. The Spanish word armadillo means "little armored one." The "armor" of the armadillo is composed of bony plates covered by a leathery skin. While this hard shell offers some protection, it cannot really repel predator attacks. However, it may provide protection when the armadillo coils himself in his burrow and a predator cannot get enough of a grasp to do any damage. Armadillos range throughout the south-central and southeastern United States and may now be found as far north as Oklahoma and Arkansas. This range expansion has been aided somewhat by humans, who have transported armadillos to other parts of the country. Originally native to South America, armadillo colonization in the U.S. seems to have taken place only within the last 150 years. The armadillo found in the U.S. is called the nine-banded armadillo ( Dasypus novemcinctus Armadillos live in a variety of habitats, including thorn scrub, mixed grasslands, and wooded bottomlands. Their preferred habitat may be wetlands with dense shade and sandy soils that are easy to dig. River valleys and areas around creeks, stock ponds, and reservoirs are choice armadillo habitats. Usually nocturnal, armadillos dig numerous emergency and temporary burrows. These may range in depth from 20 inches to 20 feet. More permanent abodes may include a network of tunnels with three to four entrances.

These animals are primarily insectivores and herbivores . While currently moderately sized animals, in the past members of this order approached the size of elephants. The forefoot of most animals in this order has five digits though usually just two or three are prominent. These usually have long, sharp claws.

Is this true? How about any other nasty diseases? Tom Wilkinson, via AOL Dear Tom: A query to the Straight Dope Science Advisory Board drew the following response: "Q. Why don't lepers play hockey? A. Too many face-offs." You see why scientific progress is slow. I have, however, established that the answer to your question is yesarmadillos do carry leprosy. I know, I know. Armadillos? Hey, don't look at me. Nobody else is quite sure what to make of it either. Leprosy, one of history's most dread diseases, has been around since ancient times. But it has never been easy to study because the bacillus that causes it, Mycobacterium leprae , can't be grown in the lab. We're still not sure of such basic facts as how you catch it. (Apparently nasal discharges are one form of transmission, so I guess you don't want to borrow a hanky in a leper colony.) It was long thought only humans could get leprosy. Then in the late 1960s researchers speculated that armadillos might be a good test bed for leprosy research because (a)

All About Armadillos The armadillo is appropriately named because of its armor plated appearance. The armor is actually made of hard bony plates covered by a leathery skin. The armadillo ranges throughout south-central and southeastern parts of the United States. It seems to be prevented from expanding into other areas of the country due to the cold weather. The armadillo first entered the country through Texas. This nocturnal animals appears to have been in the States for the last 150 years. Armadillos live in thorn scrubs, mixed grasslands and wooded bottom lands. They prefer wetlands with dense shade and sandy soils. The sandy soil allows them to dig easily. This makes river valleys, creek drainages, and areas around stock ponds ideal for their living areas. Armadillos are mature at the age of nine months. Mating occurs in July through August. Implantation is delayed until November. The armadillo usually produces a litter of four. Since they are from the same egg, they are all the same sex. The kits are fully developed when born with a pink leathery skin. The skin eventually hardens to the protective armor in a few weeks. The armadillos diet consists of primarily of insects. Small animals, baby birds, eggs and carrion are on occasion also eaten.

In the very middle of those times was a Stickly- Prickly Hedgehog, and he lived on the banks of the turbid Amazon, eating shelly snails and things. And he had a friend, a Slow- Solid Tortoise, who lived on the banks of the turbid Amazon, eating green lettuces and things. And so that was all right, Best Beloved. Do you see? But also, and at the same time, in those High and Far-Off Times, there was a Painted Jaguar, and he lived on the banks of the turbid Amazon too; and he ate everything that he could catch. When he could not catch deer or monkeys he would eat frogs and beetles; and when he could not catch frogs and beetles he went to his Mother Jaguar, and she told him how to eat hedgehogs and tortoises. She said to him ever so many times, graciously waving her tail, 'My son, when you find a Hedgehog you must drop him into the water and then he will uncoil, and when you catch a Tortoise you must scoop him out of his shell with your paw.' And so that was all right, Best Beloved.

57. Editor Of IJL 44 No. 3 pp. 376377, 1976 Leprosy in Wild armadillos by Olaf K. Skinsnes,Editor. We have found that these animals will cannibalize dead armadillos. http://pandoras-box.org/my09003.htm

INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF LEPROSY Vol. 44 No. 3 pp. 376-377, 1976 "Leprosy" in Wild Armadillos by Olaf K. Skinsnes, Editor Abstracts of two communications of considerable significance and interest to those concerned with the problems of leprosy appear on page 421 of this issue. Their venues are such that they may not be readily available to many whose main concerns are related to leprosy. For this and other reasons, they warrant comment. The publication of the first of these reports is accompanied by a guest editorial raising many pertinent points but based essentially on the assumption that the report relates to a newly discovered, naturally occurring, leprosy-like mycobacterial infection in wild armadillos. This report is. in turn, based on the finding of a mycobacteriosis, sometimes widely disseminated, in several feral armadillos which had been in the hands of Gulf South Research Institute, New, Iberia, Louisiana for periods ranging from a day to 15 weeks and which had not been experimentally infected with M. leprae

58. AIDS, Apes, And Armadillos We don t know yet, but Barry Bloom, in a guest editorial in the New YorkTimes, saw a link between leprosy, cancer, and armadillos (1m). http://pandoras-box.org/my04016.htm

Note: This section was written in 1990 and has not been updated. AIDS is caused by a virus and leprosy by a bacterium; yet many social and medical parallels exist between them. Leprosy was once thought to be a venereal disease; so its victims were social outcasts. The time between initial infection and onset of symptoms is long for both diseases. Most important, they are under control of the cell mediated immune (CMI) system, the branch of the body's protective mechanism that wards off cancer, fungus infections, and virus diseases. The AIDS virus cripples the immune system; so the victim becomes highly susceptible to other diseases. Leprosy attacks people with pre-existing immune deficiencies. When the disease progresses to the multibacillary (lepromatous) stage, immune defenses collapse altogether. Is the armadillo relevant to AIDS? We don't know yet, but Barry Bloom, in a guest editorial in the New York Times, saw a link between leprosy, cancer, and armadillos (1m). But the essence of fundamental research is that no one can predict what area of knowledge can contribute crucially to long range progress in another. A case in point is the armadillo. Absurd as it may seem to believe that the armadillo could have any practical relevance, it has become clear that the lowly armadillo holds the key to the possible eradication of leprosy. . . . For those who demand relevance closer to home, it may be added that cancer researchers believe that leprosy patients will provide insights into the failure of cancer patients to reject their tumors.
