*** About Nine-Banded Armadillo: The Nine-Banded Armadillo is a fascinating creature native to the Americas, particularly thriving in the southern United States. Known for its unique armor-like shell, this mammal is predominantly nocturnal and feeds on insects, roots, and fruits. Its ability to swim and its peculiar habit of jumping vertically when startled make it a resilient and adaptive species. Armadillos are solitary for most of the year, aside from the mating season, and usually give birth to quadruplets, which are genetically identical. This illustration beautifully captures the essence of these intriguing animals as they navigate through a stylized Texan landscape.:
