You're an Armadillo!Is there anything cuter? Armadillos' shells are so thick that it's difficult for them to regulate their body temperatures, so they have to change their habits to match the season. Like the gharial, you are clever and tenacious (and maybe secretly a softie beneath those scales). Instead, their sex is determined by incubation temperature of the egg. Which Evolutionary Outlier Are You? Consider the Platypus by Maggie Ryan Sandford explores biology and genetics by digging into the evolutionary history of the world's weirdest creatures.Figure out if you're more like an octopus or two-toed sloth, and learn a little about evolution along the way!You're a Gharial!Gharials may look fearsome, but they're not so tough: on land, their legs are so short and weak that they can scarcely lift their bellies off the ground!
