That's Lari! An important part of the attraction, this armadillo necessitated his very own blog post!

My goodness WDI is lost.
Oh, good, so THIS is what they got out of the research trips. They needed to actually take a picture of an armadillo in the bayou to confirm they lived in the bayou. Gotta be "authentic" and you know, maybe every online resource, books on New Orleans fauna, and whatever locals they managed to talk to were all lying.
I've been told kangaroos live in Australia, but hey, until I get down there and take a picture of one myself, I'm not believing anything!
