Abstract: Armadillos (Dasypus sp.) are a natural host of a number of protozoal and bacterial pathogens of medical and veterinaty importance. To date , it is the best experimental host of leprosy caused by Mycobacterium leprae and can be naturally infected with this organism. Poor survical-rate of armadillos under conventional housing conditions, however, has proved a major obstacle in breeding D. novemcinctus on captivity. Encouraging results are reported for the breeding and survical of this xenarthran in a walled-off area of forest offering an environment similar to the armadillos' natural habitat. One female raised 2 consecutive litters of 2 and 4 offspring, respectively, to adult age. Increased production is anticipated after preparation of a number of these delimited areas of natural environment for breeding purposes (AU).

Id: 17442 Author: Storrs, E. E; Burchfield, H. P Title: Gestation periods of twenty months in armadillos ?- Source: s.l; s.n; s.d. 10p p. . Abstract: The gestation period of wild armadillos in United States is believed to be 8 months, including a 3 1/2 month interval of embryonic diapause. Four animals captured in november of 1979, presumably 3 to 4 months after ovulation, proced young an average of 16 months later, indicating a gestation period of nearly 20 months. One of these animals bore 2 litters, 5 1/2 months and 17 months after capture respectively. None of these females had contact with males during captivity. The results suggest that embryonic diapause was prolonged for a year by stress of confinement, or that sperm survived for a year in the reproductive organs of the females.
