*** About Nine-Banded Armadillos: Nine-banded armadillos, scientifically known as Dasypus novemcinctus, are small to medium-sized mammals native to North and South America, particularly thriving in the southern United States. These creatures are most recognized for their leathery armor that covers their back, head, legs, and tail. Primarily nocturnal, they are known for their diet that mostly consists of insects and their larvae. Adapted to diverse habitats, from rainforests to grasslands, armadillos are solitary animals that exhibit a unique form of reproduction, giving birth to four genetically identical young from a single egg. With their strong, clawed feet, they are adept diggers, which help them forage for food and craft burrows for shelter.:
