The Houston Zoo and our conservation partners in Brazil fitted a tracking device to a giant armadillo and her baby to monitor their movement and behaviors to learn more about protecting them. Many species, like the giant anteater, depend on this endangered species to survive. Their burrows and behavior provide homes and food for over 60 other species! Both armadillos were released back into the wild with tracking devices. When you visit the Houston Zoo, you’re supporting actions that save animals around the world.
