THE ARMADILLO IS SUDDENLY THE PET FOLKS WANT

OK, just to be clear folks aren’t running out to get armadillos. They aren’t the new cool thing to carry around in your purse. However, there is a video making the rounds from Potawatomi Zoo in Indiana of an armadillo just being funny in a classroom. The adorable animal runs and curls up and even plays with a toy. So, naturally everyone commenting on it is saying something to the affect that they now want one. Not sure if you can own an armadillo. Lets hope not because I don’t think shelters around here would know what to do with one if it got loose.

Zoo Director Josh and Cachi, the three-banded armadillo, visited Kennedy Academy for Literacy Night to read a book and talk about armadillos. It was a lot of fun, and as always, Cachi was the star of the show. Three-banded armadillos are nocturnal, so Cachi was very active and interested in everything around him, especially this stuffed animal and Josh’s shoes. #potawatomizoo #wildlife #aza #zoo #armadillo #threebandedarmadillo
