  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.

      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
