Armadillos hop backwards in ways that can be amusingly meme-ified

YouTube Poster

Armadillos collect leaf litter that they use to build nests in their burrows. Because carrying is difficult when you're shaped like an armadillo, the animals opt for bunching a pile of leaves up against their abdomens and kind of hopping backwards toward their hidey holes. And all of that is a sciencey introduction to this video of an armadillo dancing to Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean".
