      If that’s what it was supposed to look like in 2023 I wonder what the actual distribution was that year.

          I actually know quite a few people that participate in hog culling, and I know in my surrounding area (Californian suburb) there are a bunch of boar cages set up to trap them, so I wouldn’t really say it’s radio silent at all, perhaps maybe a bit more quiet in your area though.

    I’ve seen them very rarely in metro Atlanta.

    Which means they’ve reached Hartsfield International Airport, and we’re all even more screwed.

    Yo I love armadillos and I rarely see them, but this map shows them just barely where I live. I hope to see one here soon, I’m sure the first one I see will be on the road, but then hopefully alive soon too :)

      I moved to Armadillo territory 10 years ago and sadly I’ve never seen one alive, only roadkill confirming their presence. The tarantula are the same way. We’re just not in the places they frolic most of the time, and if we are, they hide.

    I love the word aviation. Makes it feel like you can nounify other animal types. Like mammation. Or you could go into subgroups, like cervidation, chiropteration, monotremation, etc.

    I’m trying to figure out how they’re supposed to get to Los Angeles without crossing through San Diego. I guess hop a plane to LAX and go to Disneyland?

    Edit: Urgh, I just realized there’s probably some evil bastards out there who’d smuggle armadillo babies in their pants.
