This just in! Behbeh Armadillo

Hmmm, kinda looks like a bah bah of Zicam.

Oh and forgot to mention the ears!

Where are his three siblings?
Everyone knows that baby armadillos are always identical quads.
Well at least I do but I am from Texas.
Don’t believe me? Look it up.

Meesa tinks deesa small one iz distant couzin of Jar – Jar Binks !

Hey fine people at Cute Overload.
I almost sent copies of the picture our local paper ran on this story but I wasn’t sure
people would be as amused by Armadillo’s as I am.
This was the picture. Amusing for the cute little baby armadillo tongue http://news.sky.com/sky-news/content/StaticFile/jpg/2009/Jun/Week3/15306732

Love the “do you mind?” facial expresshons!

@Kaijugal, I tried your link but it didn’t work. Can you check to make sure everything’s there?

Hmm…while this little guy doesn’t look particularly cuddly, I’m always glad to see baby animals being cared for!

NOT cute not cute! Please I beg you send it back to whatever planet it came from!

Oh noes! Are those EYELASHES???!!

I am pro-arm and I vote! I am also fond of aardvarks. I just don’t advertise it much.

This baby with the fantastic nails is as cute as a button. A very cute button.

In Texas, it’s appropriate to photograph them with empty beer bottles.

@Tracey, I know what you mean. I’m a Texas girl, too. I actually saw a live one running down the road near my house Sunday and had to stop the car to turn around and look at it. I’d never seen one alive before. He had a rather cute, hoppity gait.

@chanpon (#19): “J (resp#15) has clearly never seen Son of Godzilla….” True, but I have seen Catzilla. ; – ) Be afraid. Be very afraid…

Well this little fella is sporting a Very Impressive Eye Capsule Starter Kit!

This baby is precious! Don’t you listen to those nay-sayers, little one…you are as cute as a button. I used to see these guys when I lived in Louisiana and think that they, along with opossums, are dandy…

Dang, check out the EYE CAPSULES!!!

I went to Mexico when I was in middle school and we went to an herb farm. The dog there had killed the mother armadillo, so they ate it, but they still had the babies running around. I picked one up and held it in my arms where it fell asleep. One of the people there made a comment and our translator translated it for me “Looks like that one wants to go to America!” ever since then I have wanted a pet armadillo.

Jezebel–”Do you mind??”, indeed. I think he scores at least 2 buns on the Disapproval Scale.

I’m a Texas gal, too. Once upon a time, when i was in high school, we caught an armadillo and released it into our county courthouse very late at night. The sheriff’s office was in the courthouse at that time and my brother was the dispatcher that night. He came home telling about the spooky clickity-click sounds they heard outside in the hall, an upon investigation found the armadillo. I never told him my friends and I were the culprits.

Skippymom — I think they’re half Klingon, half soccer ball.

DejaMew, that’s hilarious! Sounds like it’s a smaller county courthouse like ours where you know everyone who works there. What county are you in?

brinnann…San Jacinto County…where are you? (SJC is just north and east of Harris County…aka Houston)

and yes, i knew all the peeps that worked there….small towns can be fun if you have a weird sense of humor…

I realize for most peeps to hear that someone else on here is in their state isn’t a big deal. It seems different, though, for Texas because it’s so huge and spread out.

Holy eye capsules!

Since when are armadillos endangered? I frequently see them either romping about (well skittering really) or lying somewhat squished on the side of the road (always hope those are only the ones with Hanson’s Disease aka leprosy). Maybe they are just fine here in the Lone Star State and endangered in Nicaragua?
