Three-Banded Armadillo

This little guy did not come from the produce section. In fact, his variety is native to Brazil. The three-banded armadillo is the only armadillo that can seal itself completely into a tight ball.
At the Bucks County Zoo, we held this guy and gently passed him around. The bands are easy to see in this photo. Between the bands are lighter colored sections, made of a material similar to our fingernails. They're flexible, allowing for the curling that he needs for protection.
