It has been known for quite a while that armadillos carry lots of nasty diseases including leprosy.

Never touch a dead armadillo. Use a shovel and then soak the shovel in pure bleach for a day. Or toss it out.

So THAT is why having armadillos in your trousers is frightening.

There is a white subculture that thinks eating anything but the dinner table is “keeping it real”.

Armadillos are so cute. I wouldn’t touch one, though.

More than likely, the Hanson’s disease is being brought in here by busloads of Obama’s “child immigrants”, just like enterovirus D68, measles, polio, TB......you name it. Diseases that WERE nonexistant in the US.

Nine-banded armadillos believed to have caused LEPROSY in Florida patients

And the seven and eight banded ones get a pass? There's more to this story than they are letting on...........

Armadillos are considered to be yummy eating around here:

Possum on the Half-Shell

But be sure and count the bands (NO nine-banders)

The organism is Mycobacterium leprae - hard to kill, really hard to culture. When I was an undergraduate the only place you could culture the thing was, yes, armadillo foot pads. I swear I am not making that up.

Used to see them by Texas roadsides reclining back against fence posts and passed out holding empty bottles of Lone Star long-neck beer in their laps. Apparently they just loved the stuff.

Back in Depression I, people were forced to live in "Hoovervilles," and armadillos, then called "Hoover Hogs" were a menu staple.

It is only fair that in the midst of Depression II, that armadillos (the other red meat) now be called "Obama Hogs." They can be found in foreclosed subdivisions called "Obamavilles."

Never saw one of those critters when I lived in Florida.

I did see gators and used to play with one. We had a pond in our yard with a baby gator. There was a big live oak next to the pond with a branch that hung over the pond. I took a fishing poll with a ping pong ball tied to it up there. I would climb the tree and cast the ball in the water, reel it in and the gator would chase it. I used to do that for hours...it was so quiet and peaceful out there.
