  • Tiny Armadillo Is Obsessed With Taking Baths | This armadillo weighed less than a pound when he was rescued, but he's grown up into a little wild man who's always trying to jump into the shower with his mom!

      My cousins neighbor's 3rd uncle from his nephews side had done CPR on his 2nd uncle's Armadillo last week. He was gonna get it on video, but the phone died at that very moment, he went to charge it and the lights miraculously went out from the rain storms in the area.

      i think ppl are forced to believe from a very early age that only cats and dogs have personalities (and some ppl think only DOGS are worthy of anything, some ppl say they don't like cats without EVER being around one, so...); since they're not around other animals commonly, ppl tend to believe in this lie even more, i guess... but that's not true. that's my opinion. peace.

      and maybe sees his surroundings as his "normal habitat".. poor thing would probably freak out if left alone outside..

    I once found an opossum living in my garage during the holiday season and it was getting colder outside so I just let the little guy live in my garage. He founded himself a cozy spot in the garage and even made himself a bed out of stuff he founded in the garage. Anyway it was Thanksgiving week and I went and bought 8 pies 🥧 from the bakery because we were planning on traveling that year and I wanted to bring pies. Brought the pies home which were neatly placed in two boxes and sat them on the table in the garage and went to bed. Next thing in the morning when we were getting ready to leave i went into the garage to grab the pies only to discovered the opossum had himself a delicious dinner of pies. He somehow managed to claw his way into six pies and leaving two untouched. Lol. I ended up having to spend more money buying pies and they're expensive so I wasn't the happiest but at least the opossum enjoyed it. He lived in the garage through the winter and I would check up on him to make sure he wasn't destroying my garage and then one day I went to check on him and he was gone. He must have moved out. The end. Lol

I have 3 females with huge pouches of babies. So glad you allowed it to stay in your garage. They are not destructive but will eat pies if given the opportunity. 😂

      OzFPVflyer Well, humans are animals too and I’m sure if you look back far enough, Armadillos and humans have a common ancestor somewhere in our extensive genealogy. Our instinct to play and entertain ourselves is the result of over 200,000 years of evolution, back before the onset of a civilized world, when we were also roaming and trying to survive in the same enviroments of these little critters.
