The weight depends on the species. The pink fairy armadillo is the smallest species and weighs just a few ounces. The largest, the giant armadillo, can exceed 100 pounds as adults. Both species are found in South America.

The pink fairy armadillo is quite an unusual and comical-appearing animal. It is quite small (4-5 ounces) and the top of the body is covered by an armored shield, pinkish in coloration. The lower part of the body is covered in dense hair. The animal has huge, clawed feet for digging and they seem as though they belong to an animal 4 times this size. The animal's body gives the appearance of having the back quarter chopped off. Check the image above or click on this link.God really does have a sense of humor! It appears this animal was constructed with leftover parts from a variety of other animal projects.

The life span of the pink fairy armadillo is really not known. The animals are quite secretive and spend most of their lives underground. Those few that have been captured for study rarely live longer than a few hours in captivity.
