Armadillos and their extinct relatives | The complete Cingulata

Living armadillos are only part of the story. Beyond them lies a remarkable diversity of extinct relatives, together forming the Cingulata, the armored mammals. This video explores every known species in the group, living and extinct, from familiar armadillos to glyptodonts and lesser-known forms of the distant past. Following their evolutionary relationships, it brings these animals together in a comprehensive portrait of a lineage whose past was far more varied than its surviving members might suggest. An invitation to discover the full diversity of Cingulata, one species at a time.
