That thing is SOOO cute! I grew up for the most part in Texas & I never saw any armadillos close-up like this one. I only saw them either scurrying a road or highway in front of a vehicle or squashed in or beside the road.Aww how cute. I never really had much experience with being around armadillos.

Approximately 20 species of armadillo exist, but the nine-banded is the only one found in the United States. The term “armadillo” means “little armored one” in Spanish, and refers to the presence of bony, armor-like plates covering their body. Despite their name, nine-banded armadillos can have 7 to 11 bands on their armor. A common misconception is that nine-banded armadillos can roll up into spherical balls. In reality, only two species of armadillo (both three-banded) are able to roll up completely. Nine-banded armadillos are about 2.5 feet (0.7 meters) long from the nose to the tip of the tail and weigh an average of 12 pounds (5 kilograms).

No, she does not know anything about raising baby armadillos; otherwise, if the situation was right she would have been very tempted.Did she take it home and keep it?
