Armadillos: am I a joke to you?
I looked it up and xenarthra is a super order and armadillos are in xenarthra with the rest of the ones I was thinking of.
Oh neat, TIL!
What about the pangolin?
Apparently since pangolin scales are more like having fingernails all over it doesn’t count as armor.
I think they mean that giant sloths are related to armadillos & pangolins
Pangolins aren’t in Xanarthra though
