So, this’ll ne today’s “akchually” comment, but before I start I’d like to make two things clear :
I’m a bit alcoholized (for good reasons) and I probably wouldn’t be writing this otherwise.
All the animals involved aeare awesome, I love townthem(?) and want to share love and enthusiasm about them.
So, armadillos are xenarthrans and apparently zoologists don’t know exactly how to classify them, there are different theories. Pretty much everyone agrees that therethey are placental mammals, which makes them closer to us than possums are, but are therethey closer to us or to elephants? Big question. Many answers. Xenarthrans also include sloths, and anteaters. They have weird vertebrae. That’s there big thing. I don’t know the details, but apparently no other mammals have vertebrae quite like theirs. And their metabolism is pretty slow too, by mammal standards. Anyways, they’re beautiful. And you’re beautiful too.
[Edit: I later corrected the typos but left them as evidence.

Just gonna toss this out there…
Xenarthrans would make for an awesome name of aliens.
Definitely sounds like one of the made up alien races that the !insanepeoplefacebook@lemmy.world think built the pyramids
C’mon. Those are the Goa’Uld, I’ve seen that movie.
(And the tv show, and, uh, the other tv show. And uhm… that one show we won’t talk about, and the other movies too,)
This is one of my favorite comments of all time, just wanted to say.
Thank you!
