Listen "Peltephilus, the Armor Lover"
Episode Synopsis
(image source: https://dinopedia.fandom.com/wiki/Peltephilus) Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Cici Eilert discuss Peltephilus, a large armadillo with the squarest ass you’ve ever seen. Seriously, there’s just flesh and fur one inch and then none the next. From the Oligocene epoch, this 6-foot xenathran mammal was thought to be a predator at first until they realized it was like regular armadillos and ate bugs or whatever. Or rolled into balls. Except this one couldn’t; look at its big square ass! Those buns ain’t rolling nowhere. Want to further support the show?
