I had a GREAT little Fox Terrier dog that loved to "Hunt" these critters, when I lived in SW Fla.
His kill ratio was at LEAST 9 out of 10, and He was a HAPPY dog doing it...Bill.
Yeah, but did he use a .38????

"We didn't find the armadillo," the sheriff said.
...makes me wonder if he hit the armadillo. We never seem to get the straight story on "accidents" like this. It's bad enough to suffer the embarrassment of eating your own ricochet. But you didn't even hit what you were shooting at? That would be deplorable.
That's my thought. .38 special will penetrate a pretty good thickness of mild steel. I have a hard time believing it wouldn't penetrate an armadillo. I think he missed the shot and hit a rock or something."We didn't find the armadillo," the sheriff said.

"His wife was in the house. He went outside and took his .38 revolver and shot three times at the armadillo," Rowe said.
I'm going to guess he did not. 3 shots?
I'd put even money on there never having been an armadillo. Sort of like the dog that runs out in front of teen drivers.
Just for my curiosity, how do you deal with, well, suspicious claims of the involvement of animals causing traffic accidents? For example, Driver A hits the brakes hard and Driver B runs into the back of his vehicle. A says that a deer runs out in front of him. B says he didn't see any deer. A says it's not his fault that B can't see, which probably explains why he ran into him. What do you do with all of this?
Write it up and let the insurance figure it out.
