Armadillos are shelled mammals that lived during the ice age into the present day. Covered in armor-like shells, armadillos can roll up into a ball in the case of danger, relying on their armor to protect them from predator attacks.

Glyptodon (lit. 'grooved or carved tooth'; from Ancient Greek γλυπτός (gluptós) 'sculptured' and ὀδοντ-, ὀδούς (odont-, odoús) 'tooth') [1] is a genus of glyptodont, an extinct group of large, herbivorous armadillos, that lived from the Pliocene, around 3.2 million years ago, [2] to the early Holocene, around 11,000 years ago, in South America.

Glyptodons, also known as glyptos, were medium-sized, shelled mammals that lived during the ice ages. Glyptodons were short, stout armadillo-like animals that had large, protective shells like turtles and club tails for protection.
