Driving back from the sale barn late at night, musing on what I saw--

I notice there are no armadillo characters in the comics. Seems they'd be a native species.

*Swings wide on the corner to miss that one......... *

Suppose that's because, being dumber than a box of rocks, they never reach sentient status?

Or because their affinity for the bottom of pickup trucks keeps the numbers of sentient ones below a breeding population? (Doesn't seem to cut into their numbers much around here.) They don't seem to have any natural enemies; my pigs won't eat them, neither will the dogs, tho' my danes kill them and leave them as lovely little gifts for me to find. If they were sentient, I wonder what kind of jobs they would have?
