It’s in There Somewhere, We Swear
Capturing a clear photo of an armadillo requires keen observation, a quality that seems to have eluded the photographer of this image. Without the accompanying description, identifying the subject as an armadillo might have been challenging, though it becomes somewhat visible upon closer inspection.
The distinctive armor plates, which serve as the armadillo’s primary form of defense, are partially obscured beneath a significant layer of dirt and mud, presumably covering the creature’s head—or possibly its rear. An apparent ear can be made out on the right, but its exact details remain ambiguous.
