Minecraft armadillo: scutes, wolf armor and spiders
The armadillo is a passive animal of savannas and badlands. In savannas it spawns in groups of two or three in Java, or four in Bedrock, and in badlands in groups of one or two, always in good light. It is the only source of armadillo scutes, the material used to craft wolf armor.
There are two ways to get scutes from it. On its own it sheds one every 5 to 10 minutes, at a rate similar to a chicken laying eggs. And if you brush it, it drops one right away, though each use costs 16 durability: an unenchanted brush is good for 4 scutes in Java and 5 in Bedrock.
When scared it rolls into a ball. That happens if it takes damage, if an undead mob is near or if a player approaches while sprinting or riding something. Rolled up it cannot walk or eat and takes much less damage. Now and then it peeks out, and after 3 seconds with no threat it unrolls again. That is why it pays to walk up to it on foot.
It has one very useful effect: spiders and cave spiders flee from it within 6 blocks, as long as it is not rolled up. It follows you if you hold spider eyes and breeds with them, and a baby takes 20 minutes to grow. On death it gives 1 to 3 experience.
