SUMMARY: The Nine-Banded Armadillo is a versatile creature well-suited to various habitats across the eastern U.S. They are slowly expanding their range northward and have been recently spotted in Nebraska.

Armadillos are the only armored mammals in the world and have unique qualities such as identical quadruplets and the ability to run up to 30 miles per hour.

SUMMARY: St. Patrick’s Day, celebrated on March 17, honors the missionary who introduced Christianity to Ireland. This festive day, where everything turns green, was brought to America by Irish immigrants. Boston held the first official observance in 1737, while St. Augustine claimed the earliest celebration in 1600. In Mississippi, St. Patrick’s festivities kick off in Biloxi with a parade and family-friendly festival on March 15, 2025, followed by Jackson’s Hal’s St. Paddy’s Parade on March 22. Celebrations span the state, inviting everyone to wear green and partake in the fun, avoiding leprechaun pinches along the way.
