Pachyarmatherium (SciiFii)

The giant one-banded armadillo (Pachyarmatherium leiseyi) is a species of large armadillo-like cingulate, despite is name, native to North and South America that originally lived from the Pliocene and Pleistocene epochs, and was once extinct, but has since been brought back from extinction by SciiFii and reintroduced through the Americas to help boost biodiversity. The giant one-banded armadillo is related to the armadillos, the pampatheres, and glyptodonts. The giant one-banded armadillo is a very large animal that can grow to be about 7.2 (2.1 meters) in length, including the tail, and weigh about 122 kilograms (268 pounds). The giant one-banded is an omnivore that primarily feeds on though fungi, tubers, fruits, seeds, grubs, beetles, ants, termites, and worms, although it is also known to feed on amphibians, small reptiles, bird eggs, baby mammals, and carrion. Due to having only one band on its shell, it does not have the ability to roll into a ball like armadillos of most species. Giant one-banded armadillos are solitary, largely nocturnal animals that wake up to forage around dusk. Giant one-banded armadillos mark their territory with urine, feces, and excretions from scent glands found on the eyelids, nose, and feet. Males hold breeding territories and may become aggressive in order to keep other males out of their home range to increase chances of pairing with a female. Territorial disputes are settled by kicking and chasing. When they are not foraging, giant one-banded armadillos shuffle along fairly slowly, stopping occasionally to sniff the air for signs of danger. The conservation status of the giant one-banded armadillo is Least Concern due to successful conservation efforts and the giant one-banded armadillo's wide range.
