Features of Pink Fairy Armadillo
The pink fairy armadillo lives in sandy plains, dunes and scrubby grasslands, reports az-animals.com. It spends most of its time underground, in burrows dug with its large claws. They are known as ‘sand swimmers’ because they can move quickly and easily through mud and desert sand. It can hide itself inside the sand in a few seconds.
Its pink ‘armor’ shell contains blood vessels that empty or fill to regulate its body temperature, giving it its pink colour. The Pink Fairy Armadillo, an endangered species, eats mostly ants and other insects. It should not be removed by its sound, as it cannot survive as a pet. Pink fairy armadillos are omnivores. The scientific name of this organism is Chlamyphorus truncatus. This creature can live for 5 to 10 years. It has a pale pink colour.
