Now that’s a Texas sized armadillo



The 7-foot-long Glyptodon, a large relative of the modern armadillo, shared its ice age world with wooly mammoths, saber-toothed cats and a beaver the size of a black bear. I took this photo at the Texas Memorial Museum, the exhibit hall of the Texas Natural Science Center. It is located on the University of Texas campus in Austin, Texas: http://www.utexas.edu/tmm/exhibits/index.html
