First published records of six-banded armadillo Euphractus sexcinctus carrying offspring in its mouth in Brazil

We recorded the first event of six-banded armadillo carrying offspring in their mouth in Brazil on October 2022, at 06:36, Goiás. We searched for additional records in Web of Science, Scopus, Google Scholar, and social media platforms (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube). We found two articles and seven Brazilian videos depicting armadillos carrying offspring in their mouths. While this is a common reproductive behavior, it might also relate to shelter disturbance. Despite incomplete social media records regarding date, time, location, and collector, they underscore the significance of citizen science in showcasing Brazilian biodiversity and contributing to our understanding of armadillos' natural history.
