This is the unique original Gouache painting by Bernard Long.

The Giant Armadillo lives in swampy areas of South America. Precise numbers are not known but it is thought the numbers are in serious decline and the animal could face extinction. They can weigh over 30Kg.

The Pink Fairy Armadillo lives in sandy arid areas of Argentina and is the smallest of the family, it weighs only about 120g and is also in danger of extinction due to farming. They do not survive in captivity.

This unexpectedly charming and unusual painting was originally published as pages 20/21 of Strange and Curious Creatures y Bernard Long and Rupert Oliver.
