we had them in oklahoma. you could go out there and stomp the ground right by them and they wouldnt move. i used to grab them by the tail and take them over to the woods so they didnt drive the dog inside nuts with all the snorting going on outside while they dug up bugs.sometimes you would run across one that would jump about 3 foot in the air when you scared it by stomping.

one question though why going to the mailbox that early lol

well just my luck I have a camera shy armadillo, he didn't want any part of the picture-taking process :hehe:
And I wasn't going to the mailbox early, I was totally late, having sat in front of Avian Avenue all day long, I never went to get the mail :rofl:

Excellent photo subject!!

Do you have neighbors??
They would have been asleep most likely anyways. Lol

I love armadillios, at least I really like looking at them. Never really saw if they have teeth or fangs or anything like that - could change my mind possibly if they did. :rolleyes:

Now he's gonna go back and tell all his friends about the crazy lady taking pics at 2:45AM and they'll all want to come and see for themselves because they just won't believe him. :D

That was the driveway across the street, I figured I better stop making the flash go off in the middle of the night on someone else's property :rofl::rofl::rofl:
