Player #151898054, I had a friend who lived on a ranch in Texas. She absolutely adored the little rascals.

I don't know if they're figured out why the two species share this vulnerability, but it's fascinating. Growing up, I remember hearing someone talking about eating barbecued armadillo. Apparently some people regard it as rather a delicacy.
