The peg like cheek teeth range in number from seven to nine on each side of the upper and lower jaw. The long tapering tail is encased in 12 bony rings.

The soft soil is relatively easy to dig in and contains a rich assortment of food sources. Damage associated with armadillos includes small cylindrical holes dug in clusters where they forage and you may see large burrow holes where they den. They usually have more than one burrow in their home range.
