armadillo pics

Recommended Posts

That's a nice shot!!! Like you, I've been trying to get a shot of an armadillo standing on his hind legs but haven't got one yet. I did get it on video tonight, but I'd like to have a nice still shot because it looks really cute. I'll post it when I get a good one.

Diller ... the killer amadiller



Must be an Oklahoma thing. In Texas, we replace the 'o' with an 'a'--armadilla.

Ahem, I'm a TEXAN born and bred; sentenced to purgatory here in OK.

In an old beer commercial there was a killer armadillo. The by line was, "I don't believe in no killer armadiller, I don't believe in no killer armadiller, ..."

I thinking the armadillo would look *great* with a bath and a bit of vegetable oil applied to his armor. I sent some pics to an ex-girlfriend and she thinks armadillos are ugly. Personally, I think they're really cute!!!

I dunno about the mask--maybe a Hillary Clinton mask. She's scary. Maybe Martha Stewart. Or maybe a redneck with barbecue utensils.

Have you ever given a racoon a sugar cube?:D


Chuck



No, I feed them dry dog food or dry cat food.

Why, what does sugar do to them?

It's really kinda funny. Have you ever watched coons wash their food? It drives 'em nuts, looking for that sugar cube. :D

While sitting around the skydiver campfire one night in Florida, after making night jumps, an armadillo wandered into the cone of firelight. Big mistake on his part. Someone got the bright idea (pun intended) to cut open our still glowing cyalume light sticks and bathe the 'dillo in glowing green goo. We ran him down and did the deed. Then laughed uproariously at the nuclear-charged armadillo as he bopped away across the field.

(Dear PETA: cyalume light sticks are non-toxic.)
