Armadillos are strongly attracted to that place we all know as "where the rubber meets the road".

Also, I seriously doubt they would eat pansies.

Armadillos are also the only known animal that can contract the same strain of leprosy that infects humans.

Yes, its because armadillos have such low body temperatures compared to other animals. Because of this they can actually carry many other disease not found in most other animals. It is also what makes them excellent test subjects for lab experiments.

Correlation does not imply causation. Pebbles have low body temperatures too, yet they carry relatively few diseases and make poor test subjects.
