There seems to be the language link missing to the German Version of this article: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gürtelmulle —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.57.184.8 (talk) 22:54, 29 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Coyote as predator... Huh?

The article states that coyotes prey on pink fairy armadillos when they come out of their burrows.

This makes **no sense**. Coyotes live only in North America, while this species lives only in the southern part of South America. —Moxfyre (ǝɹʎℲxoɯ | contrib) 02:26, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed. I've removed the offending text. - UtherSRG (talk) 14:11, 30 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Molecular data?

This article makes the claim that the pink fairy armadillo is the species of armadillo about which we have the least molecular data available. I have no clue what that means, other than possibly the author watching too much Star Trek. I am inclined to replace molecular data with 'information - citation needed'. 166.177.121.170 (talk) 00:48, 29 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 24 March 2021

It is requested that an edit be made to the semi-protected article at Pink fairy armadillo. (edit · history · last · links · protection log)

This template must be followed by a complete and specific description of the request, that is, specify what text should be removed and a verbatim copy of the text that should replace it. "Please change X" is not acceptable and will be rejected; the request must be of the form "please change X to Y".

The edit may be made by any autoconfirmed user. Remember to change the |answered=no parameter to "yes" when the request has been accepted, rejected or on hold awaiting user input. This is so that inactive or completed requests don't needlessly fill up the edit requests category. You may also wish to use the {{ESp}} template in the response. To request that a page be protected or unprotected, make a protection request.

After the sentence, "These armadillos are very susceptible to climate changes as well; since they inhabit temperate and warm regions, cold temperatures could wipe out its population due to their low metabolism rate and the lack of fat it is able to store.", add, "Pink fairy armadillos’ susceptibility to climate change has contributed significantly to their low population density. Even during periods of stable climate, prior climate fluctuations critically hinder their ability to successfully recover as a population. ^[1]" Mlee268 (talk) 23:45, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I don't have access to the results, only the abstract. Do the results state with any certainty that climate fluctuations contributed significantly? The abstract says that was the postulation. Thanks. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 11:20, 25 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
