"We've had armadillos killed on the road just about every year" since 2003, says (the Jackson County animal-control chief Lloyd) Nelson, reflecting what wildlife specialists say is ample evidence that the creatures with the pencil-thin tail are nudging their way northward from their southern U.S. climes.
"We've got them in Nebraska; that's as far north as we have any records," said Lynn Robbins, a biology professor at Missouri State University. "They're adapting, filling in so many places."
~Can armadilllos march? From films I've seen I'ld say they waddle, scuttle, or scurry and are incapable of marching.
They're probably quicker then they look.
