whoever will stop this massive armadillo kaiju trampling over the united states?

If that’s what it was supposed to look like in 2023 I wonder what the actual distribution was that year.

Found info from previous years

I don't know, but I do suspect 'big angry bacon' is soon gonna be on a lot more people's menus, lol.

The fact that the human side has gone radio silent on the war tells you all you need to know. Pray to whatever god you observe. It's going to get bleak.

I actually know quite a few people that participate in hog culling, and I know in my surrounding area (Californian suburb) there are a bunch of boar cages set up to trap them, so I wouldn’t really say it’s radio silent at all, perhaps maybe a bit more quiet in your area though.

We just find out how they were able to breach the impenetrable walls of swine.

I wouldn’t worry too much; they don’t have thumbs, so flying a jet may turn into an unexpected challenge hehehe.

Musk wants to install his neuralink thing in them so they can fly that way. No thumbs needed.

You would need the brain wiring side of that installed

Southern Florida shows us that the only way to defeat them is with alligators.

"We know how to take them out, General. Spread the word."

Um, no, that's just the part of Florida that the animals can tell will be under water soon.

Well, ok yeah, alligators would then be a problem.

There is exactly one and it is that giant one in the picture. He is surveying new potential lands to extend his power.

I'm trying to figure out how they're supposed to get to Los Angeles without crossing through San Diego. I guess hop a plane to LAX and go to Disneyland?

Edit: Urgh, I just realized there's probably some evil bastards out there who'd smuggle armadillo babies in their pants.

I love the word aviation. Makes it feel like you can nounify other animal types. Like mammation. Or you could go into subgroups, like cervidation, chiropteration, monotremation, etc.

Crustation? Or maybe crustaceation? A process of periodical molting. Or maybe the act of using a claw-like implement?

I've seen them very rarely in metro Atlanta.

Which means they've reached Hartsfield International Airport, and we're all even more screwed.

Yo I love armadillos and I rarely see them, but this map shows them just barely where I live. I hope to see one here soon, I'm sure the first one I see will be on the road, but then hopefully alive soon too :)

I moved to Armadillo territory 10 years ago and sadly I've never seen one alive, only roadkill confirming their presence. The tarantula are the same way. We're just not in the places they frolic most of the time, and if we are, they hide.

I'm calling it now: the 9-banded armadillo will be adopted as Canada's mascot in the next decade, after they become the main species in the Canadian deserts.
