Pink Fairy Armadillo (Chlamyphorus truncatus)

Set of scaled side and front drawings of the Pink Fairy Armadillo

The Pink Fairy Armadillo (Chlamyphorus truncatus) is a solitary desert animal inhabiting the sun dunes, shrubby grasslands, and sandy plains of Central Argentina. It is identified by its spatula-shaped tail, flexible dorsal shell, silky yellowish white fur, and small eyes. This armadillo lacks visible ears and the rear of its tail is diamond-shaped and flat. It is nocturnal and consumes both insects and plants. Other unique features the pink fairy armadillo possesses are a torpedo-shaped body to reduce drag, relying mainly on touch and hearing, and possessing enormous claws on the front and hind limbs for digging burrows.

The Pink Fairy Armadillo has a body length in the range of 3.15”-4.7” (8-12 cm) and total weight of .22-.26 lb (.1-.12 kg). The Pink Fairy Armadillo has an estimated standing height between 1.2”-1.8” (3-4.5 cm), body width of .8”-1.2” (2-3 cm), and tail length of 1”-1.38” (2.5-3.5 cm). The typical lifespan of the Pink Fairy Armadillo is between 3-4 years.

Armadillos or Cingulata are nocturnal animals endemic to Central and South America. Most are insectivorous, but others are omnivorous. Their brain is small, long and cylindrical, and with ring-shaped tympanic bones. The most obvious feature is the bony armor covering the back, legs, tail, and head.
