gemini 0 #3 December 29, 2006 Be careful with those critters! They have terrible eyesight, are not very smart, and can carry something very similar to leprosy. Blue skies, Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ToyMaker 0 #4 December 29, 2006 BTW... from an Armadillo FAQ I found... QuoteWhere can I buy an armadillo (Live or dead, for food or otherwise)? I know of no company or restaurant that sells live armadillos. I have heard that some shops in San Francisco’s Chinatown sell dead armadillos for food. ... you will still be able to walk him around with a leash _______________________________________ White cute poodle puppy found.

willard 0 #5 December 29, 2006 QuoteBe careful with those critters! They have terrible eyesight, are not very smart, and can carry something very similar to leprosy. Armadillo's are the only creatures besides humans that contract leprosy, and littermates are genetically identical. That makes them valuable for research on a cure for leprosy. They also have really nasty claws! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ToyMaker 0 #8 December 29, 2006 QuoteBe careful with those critters! They have terrible eyesight, are not very smart, and can carry something very similar to leprosy. From the same Online FAQ I found... Quote Do armadillos carry diseases, such as leprosy? Wild armadillos have been known to be infected with the bacterium that causes leprosy (Hansen’s disease). The only cases of transmission from armadillos to humans have occurred in rare incidents in which people ate undercooked armadillo meat._______________________________________ White cute poodle puppy found.
