Abstract: | A CENTURY-LONG search for an unaltered animal in which to study leprosy in humans culminated in the finding that the nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novemcinctus, Linn.) a primitive mammal native to the southern Western Hemisphere, develops disseminated lepromstous leprosy following inocuation with Mycobacterium leprae isolated from human tissue.(AU).
