Dehydrated Armadillo video went viral in 2020

In June 2020, With soya bean farming leaving patches of once green fields pale, and newly uncovered earth destroying the habitat for rare species in Brazil, footage of an exhausted and dehydrated armadillo that fled from degraded land on a forlorn highway where it drank water from a truck’s flowing pipe has disheartened the internet. Shared on Twitter by Science girl, the 50-second clip was shot by Caio Borges in which the feeble, thirsty creature desperately drank water flowing from the lorry pipe onto a dusty, muddy ground.  

As per reports, the tiny scaled animal was a victim of the growing capitalism of soya bean farming in Cerrado, Brazil that deforested its home clean putting the small creature at risk with nowhere to go. He was spotted limping alongside a dirt track by a man loading the truck. Borges was stockpiling grain from a farm to head to Campo Novo do Parceis in mid-west Brazil with his brother when he noticed the small brown-colored animal lost, walking slowly in the middle of the highway that often has speeding trucks. The animal looked like it had been roaming for a long while as it looked tired, hungry, and exhausted, according to Borges. 

With the creature suddenly looking towards Borges with hope, as per his statement, he felt like the tiny armadillo was asking for help. Therefore, the man directed jutted pipe at the creature as it placed its small head under the guzzling water and touched its feet in the pool, and slurped some water.
