Armadillos"For a single armadillo, you will own, On Salisbury Plain in summer is comparatively rare, And a pair of them is practically unknown."
Armadillos are placental mammals in the order Cingulata. They form part of the superorder Xenarthra, along with the anteaters and sloths. Twenty-one extant species of armadillo have been described, some of which are distinguished by the number of bands on their armor. All species are native to the Americas, where they inhabit a variety of environments.

"Ive never seen a Jaguar, Nor yet an Armadill- o dilloing in his armour, And I spose I never will, Unless I go to Rio These wonders to behold-- Roll down--roll down to Rio-- Roll really down to Rio! Oh, Id love to roll to Rio Some day before Im old!"
"Dada doubts everything. Dada is an armadillo. Everything is Dada, too. Beware of Dada."
