Armadillo? Leprosy not a thing with them? I’ve got a buddy who tells me to stay away from them.
It is I suppose, but the overall risk of catching it is very low as most humans are immune to leprosy and most armadillos don't carry it to begin with.
Do you or your buddy ever hunt deer, or hogs or bears ect, or go fishing or work cattle?
Y'all should look up the zoonotic diseases associated with them sometimes.

Would you know where along the Alaska Railroad route this pic was shot (i.e. North or South of Anchorage)? I've traveled the entire route North of Anchorage to Fairbanks, stopping at Denali National Park, twice. I remember the 2nd time I rode it, they were still using dual SD-40s, but the conductor told me they were going to a single MAC-70. Apparently so, per the above.

True. I’ve eaten everything around here other than armadillo and rat snake, that smell. I cringe every time a neighbor tells me they shot several hogs and threw them in the creek, but I’m all out of freezer space.
