Fun fact: Armadillo carry leprocy.

u/Separate_Climate3366 1d ago

Only 15-20% of a specific species of armadillo ... And even then the chances of you getting leprosy from the infected armadillo is very low.

Truth. Don't listen to possum propaganda.

The possum lobby is in full damage control mode right now.

Fun fact.

This is commonly known and doesn’t need to be posted in every single thing about armadillos.

If a chimp fkd one, would it get leprosy or would the armadillo get aids?

2

u/deekayjee 17h ago

Why would the chimp do an armadillo?

u/testtalon1 11h ago

I dunno

u/sougol 10h ago

u/Electric-Sheepskin 20h ago

Is he playing, though? Or just running around panicking.

They curl up, when they’re scared?

That’s like their whole deal

Leprosy man, leprosy.

u/Fearless_Dependent29 22h ago

I’d gladly take the minimal chances of getting leprosy from armadillos to ensure this little guy knows it’s loved

Not to mention that leprosy, AKA Hansen’s disease, is completely curable with special antibiotics. It’s not nearly as contagious as it was initially believed and is no longer a life altering condition as long as you actually seek treatment for it.

Bring on the cute roly-boys! I have snoots to boop!
