Armadillo means “little armored one” in Spanish; and refers to the bony plates that cover the back, head, legs, and tail of most of these creatures.
The three banded armadillo is the only species of armadillo that can roll to protect itself against predators.
Armadillos have a low metabolic heart rate and low fat storage. Because of this, cold is its enemy so you will find armadillos living in warm climates including rain forests, grasslands, and semi-deserts.
The armadillo sleeps most of the day and forages for food early in the morning and late evening.
Armadillos are powerful swimmers and can go great distances underwater. They can hold their breath up to six minutes at a time. If they need to stay afloat, they can fill their intestines with air to increase buoyancy and counterbalance the weight of their shells.
