Armadillos sleep more than 17 hours a day, and can eat 40,000 ants at a sitting. Females always give birth to four identical offspring. For these and other reasons, man should have no compunction about eating armadillos. There are many delicious armadillo recipes.

These include armadillo meatballs, BBQ armadillo, and hickory smoked armadillo; not to mention Sally's Armadillo Something or Other, and smoked armadillo chops.

From a WSU Cougar's file, there's armadillo 'n rice. And don't overlook High-Desert Wild Life Chili with armadillo, rattlesnake and javelina, from Oregon State University's Department of Fish and Wildlife newsletter (go to p. 8).

The premier online armadillo links are here.
