A good friend of mine had leprosy (Hansen's Disease) for many years. She is just now off the medication. I'd never known anyone with leprosy. I should ask if she petted an armadillo.
WARNING! This person is extremely blonde...please type SLOWLY.

I never knew that either. I wonder what other creature might be a carrier.

People actually have to be warned against this?

We have armadillos in Missouri. They can be very destructive. They can dig holes in your yard. I did not pet any when I was in Florida earlier this year.
Corgis fill your life with Joy, your heart with Love, and your soul with Sunshine.
