The body covering of an armadillo consists of a tough, leathery skin embedded with bony plates called osteoderms. These plates form a protective armor that shields the armadillo from predators and environmental hazards. The outer layer of skin is often covered with coarse hair, and their flexible shell allows for some movement while providing defense. This unique body covering is a key adaptation that helps armadillos survive in their habitats.
