ScreamArmadillo 1 Jul 2011 Never herd of this species. There very amazing looking. Would they be a rare bird to come by in zoos?

ScreamArmadillo 1 Jul 2011 Yes, I did see the adult picture. There very impressive. The IUCN Red List classifies these a NT. Why aren't they in more zoos? Are they hard to breed? I'm guessing there in more Philippine zoos than U.S. or European.
