The armor is also very flexible. I would not immediately call bullshit on a ricochet story off of an armadillo.I’ve had quite a few around the yard the last few years, digging under stuff and just rutting the yard up.
22lr never seems to have a problem. Shot placement may not get them first shot, but never had anything ricochet. I read several stories online about it happening but to me there seemed to be an ingredient missing that the stories must have included but was left out, alcohol.
Their armor is tough but not bulletproof.
