How to Catch an Armadillo

A few weeks ago, I found my four by eight foot garden bed all dug up. I wasn't sure what type of animal had done it, and my prime suspect was a large possum. So I decided that I would set a trap for him and in the meantime try to protect my plants from being dug up by spreading rabbit wire over the ground. Afterwards, this unknown creature had dug all around the wire, and I had to add some strips of cardboard held down by stones . While I was doing this a family of armadillos came around and headed for my garden while I was sitting out there. They usually come around at about four o'clock in the afternoon, and yesterday, I went inside and got my camera and filmed them. I also was able to catch one of them by the tail like my daddy used to do many years ago.
