How do armadillos live?
- ๐๏ธ 25
Armadillos are small to medium-sized mammals known for their tough, armor-like shells. They are found primarily in the Americas, particularly in southern parts of the United States, Central America, and South America. Armadillos are primarily solitary and nocturnal, spending most of their time foraging for food at night. They are insectivores, feeding mainly on ants, termites, beetles, and other small invertebrates. Armadillos have a keen sense of smell, which helps them locate their food underground. They also eat some fruits and plants. Reproduction occurs sexually, with most armadillo species giving birth to litters of 1-4 offspring. The offspring are born with soft, pliable shells that harden as they mature.
