Beautiful armadillo (SciiFii)

The beautiful armadillo (Dasypus bellus), also known as the North American armadillo, is a species of armadillo that was originally endemic to North America and South America during the the Pleistocene, living from 1.8 mya—11,000 years ago, existing for approximately 1.789 million years, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced rainforests, swamps, marshlands, forests, open woodlands, grasslands, shrublands, scrublands, deserts across North America to help boost biodiversity. Unlike the nine-banded armadillo, the beautiful armadillo is found in almost every part of the United States, even in California, due to the beautiful armadillo's better climbing abilities on rough terrain and due to its tolerance to colder temperatures. The beautiful armadillo is slightly larger than one of its relatives, the nine-banded armadillo. It has small, simple, peg-like teeth similar to D. novemcinctus. This armadillo has an average height of 3.3 feet (1 meter). The anterior teeth have a single, slanted wear surface. The more latter teeth have two flat wear surfaces that meet at a shallow angle. The diet of the beautiful armadillo is similar to the nine-banded armadillo, allowing this species to be a very adaptable animal. The conservation status of the beautiful armadillo is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts, the beautiful armadillo's wide natural range and its tolerance to most of the human activities, including being able to adapt to life in the cities and suburbs.
