Nine-Banded Armadillo spotted in the landscaping on the Air University campus, Maxwell AFB, AL.
I saw him in these hedges two days in arrow, he must have a burrow in the landscaping somewhere near by!

Thanky you! They are strange, right? Appearently they were originally native to South America, but their range is slowly increasing throughout the southern and southeastern United States.
OMG...They're really real! What an interesting looking critter. Absolutely wonderful spotting Sargon! Thank you for sharing :)
This is one of those animals for me that is so hard to imagine until you see it in person.
