Armadillo
Welcome back folks.
My first classes of the semester have gone about as smoothly as was expected. I still haven’t hung out the promised sign up list mentioned above. I will try to do that Wednesday. In the meantime, anyone still interested in that course should contact me via my form mail (the contact button on the left).
In other news, regarding one particular “grown up” class off campus, I did a little “research” regarding the nature of the “Guerteltier”.
I had no idea what a “belt animal” was in English, so I played a round of 20 questions as to what kind of animal it was supposed to be. Is it a real animal? Yes. Is it warm-blooded? They didn’t know. One student thought that they lay eggs. We established the fact that the animal in question did have a hard shell, but one student insisted that “it’s like a turtle, but with long legs”. My first guess would have been armadillo, but then I wasn’t sure. I could go on, but I’ll spare you the details. Below are some children’s websites that put us in the picture.

So, long story short, it’s an armadillo, a kissing cousing to the anteater and the sloth. That’s good company.
