The armadillo is a new mob that was introduced in Minecraft Live 2023 and was one of the three designs that went up for public vote. The armadillo is a passive mob that can be found in warm biomes, such as the savannah biome. It can spawn alone or in small groups. If attacked, the armadillo will roll into a ball. The armadillo drops a special scute that can be used to craft wolf armor. The wolf armor gives extra defense to your pet, which is useful when facing skeletons at night. The armadillo is also cute and could make the world feel more lively.
