I've been living on my current property for two and a half years and I hadn't seen one armadillo...until last night. I went outside to sit in the backyard on a little bench we have and there was an armadillo under it that scared the heck out of me. I didn't know he was there until he came running out and it was the fattest armadillo I have ever seen. He was huge! Lol, I don't know was more startled - him or me.
