The six-banded armadillo (Euphractus sexcinctus) is a species of armadillo from South America. It is the sole extant member of the genus Euphractus.
In Prehistoric Park[]
"Saving the Sabretooth"[]
Nigel captured a specimen during his 2nd expedition to prehistoric South America. He stated that giant ones used to roam the area before releasing it quickly without taking it back to Prehistoric Park, possibly due to the fact that this species still exists in the present.
Trivia[]
- Nigel's encounter with the six-banded armadillo was presumably an unintentional encounter.
