Armadillos are hole-digging specialists and belong to the order Cingulata. Noted for their secretive habits, they have physical characteristics that make them true digging masters.
These animals have a bony covering known as the carapace, consisting of leathery plates covered with scales, which form a kind of shield that protects their bodies from attacks by predators.
Its forelimbs are adapted to quickly dig holes in search of food. The armadillo has nocturnal habits and is usually solitary, although it is also found in groups.
They feed on insects such as termites and ants. They can also add small vertebrates, earthworms, frogs, and beetles to their diet. Its tongue is long and sticky to facilitate catching prey.
In addition to digging holes in search of food, they use places as shelter, protecting themselves from other predators. Armadillos can also swim and cross rivers and streams without much difficulty.
