Armadillos

[Oldrook]

Saw my second Illinois armadillo yesterday just shy of exit 37 in Metropolis. Apparently, swimming the Ohio doesn’t bother them sum bucks.

They are actually good swimmers/floaters. Can hold their breath up to 5 minutes. Can walk on the bottom of a stream to cross it

I travel fromBG to Missouri a lot to help my dad out. They in every county between here and SE Mo. I think they prefer mostly in wooded areas

They also carry Hansen’s disease. That’s the bacteria that causes Leprosy.
